Meet the Artisan
Iris YonaFounder & Master Silversmith
Antiqua was created by Iris Yona in 1996. Born, raised, and educated in Israel, Iris evolved from a silversmith into a true artist, mastering the delicate craft of wire work and developing an intimate understanding of semi-precious stones — their unique properties, natural hues, and the stories they hold within.
Each piece in the Antiqua collection is custom handmade — from elegant necklaces and bracelets to stunning earrings and beyond. Every creation is a unique work of wearable art, designed to be treasured for generations.
"One of the highlights of my work comes from the challenge in one-on-one sessions with clients to design truly individual, one-of-a-kind pieces."
— Iris Yona
