For the past 20 years, Rivka Valerie Nahmias has been a beauty journalist based in Paris who sometimes got to write about high-jewelry collections. She loved her job up until two years ago, when she decided to re-orient her career towards her jewelr passion and lauched Rivka Nahmias Jewelry in January 2015.

Inspired by the smallest letter of the Hebrew alphabet, the Youd, Rivka managed to transform the religious symbol into a jewelry icon.

After an intense program at the Academie des Métiers D’art in Paris – under the supervision of the jeweler Marc Lauer- she decided to use her artistic  eye to blend beauty and harmony in a her first jewelry collection where she has set the youd as a universal talisman rather than just a religious symbol.

Since Rivka works in her own workshop in Paris, all of the pieces are hand-made and embellished with delicately glistening genuine gemstones and set in rich handcrafted satin finishes for a one-of-a-kind look and feel.

A large selection of pieces are available at The Eye of Jewelry Pop Up Store in Geneva located at the Grand Kempinski Hotel, Quai du Montblanc 19. Open Wednesday through Friday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday from 2.30 p.m. to 6.30 p.m. and on appointment.

“Regarde la lumière et admire sa beauté. Ce que tu as vu d’abord n’est plus. Ce que tu verras ensuite n’est pas encore.”  Léonard de Vinci

Grace à ses vingt ans d’expérience dans la presse féminine mode et beauté, Valerie Rivka Nahmias a pu approfondir et alimenter sa vision de l’univers du Luxe et de ses tendances. Spiritualiste, elle s’intéresse au sens des lettres, des symboles et des chiffres. Passionnée de Haute Joaillerie, elle décide de lancer sa collection de bijoux-talismans en or et diamants. Après une formation intensive à l’Académie des Métiers d’Art, auprès du joaillier Marc Lauer, elle RIVKA NAHMIAS JEWELRY en janvier 2015.

Sa joaillerie est à la fois traditionnelle et novatrice, à l’écoute de notre univers en perpétuel mouvement. Rivka utilise le youd comme principal source d’inspiration de ses créations. Le youd étant la plus petite lettre de l’alphabet hébraïque, elle fait de ce symbole religieux une icône joaillière.
