The Israeli shopping scene is more than just big-name shopping mall chains and a network of manic markets. Though your guidebook will surely direct you towards Mahane Yehuda or the infamous Dizengoff center, what it won’t tell you about is the up-and-coming community of Israeli jewelry designers bursting onto the scene. Scattered around Israel, with a majority along the pedestrian-heavy Dizengoff street (in central Tel Aviv) and Shabazi street (in Neve Tzedek), are a number of innovative artists crafting handmade, customized earrings, rings, bracelet, necklaces and accessories. If you're willing to dig, there are some great vintage finds in Jaffa's Flea Market as well. Plus, they've got some great street food to keep you going. So here it is: the inside scoop on where to find the best Israeli jewelry designers—the ones who put the ‘jew’ in jewelry.

She describes her collection as dreamy, poetic and slightly humorous, drawing inspiration from childhood memories and souvenirs to create a surrealist final showcase. The materials she mixes with silver, porcelain and glass are as diverse as her talents, ranging from shuttlecock feathers to eyelashes.

Shira Gabay’s stylistic focus is simple: clean-cut jewelry with a vintage touch. The name of her brand “She-Ra Jewelry” draws inspiration from She-Ra, the Princess of Power. She-Ra represents a powerful, yet elegant figure for the designer, while power and elegance are cast in her uniquely shaped sterling silver and solid gold rings like an engraving. Although Shira’s obsession with rings is evident on her Etsy page, which features mostly customized handmade rings, she also sells a variety of necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.
