Cohavi Jewellery – Our Story
Creating Custom Designs Of Beauty & Joy
“My background in jewellery began in the late 1980s, following a fascination with gemstones. I loved their beauty and colours. I’d built up an eclectic collection and was eager to utilise them somehow.
Since I’ve always enjoyed making things with my hands, I decided to become a jeweller and use traditional methods and techniques. Later, I experimented with 3D imaging. This enabled me to introduce new methods for creating pieces with precision that weren’t previously possible. It also allowed my customers to be involved in the dynamics of shaping their vision.
Today, Cohavi Jewellery produces high-end personalised jewellery and Judaica.
Our beliefs and inspiration lies in the customer’s ability to reveal their creative potential. We’ll give you the opportunity to use your own imagination to co-create and find your vision. It’s truly a most gratifying experience, which becomes a unique testament to your own individuality.
Together with my wife, Michal, we continually strive to provide memorable experiences for our customers. There’s no greater satisfaction than giving someone a custom-made piece and seeing the joy on their face.
It is our hope that you will cherish and adore your jewellery – and it becomes a lasting source of beauty and joy.
We look forward to being part of your journey.”

Our Background
The Cohavi Jewellery journey began in 1992 when we started designing and exhibiting pieces in Japan and Taiwan. This continued for five years, with many beautiful pieces being displayed in various galleries.
From 1997 to 2003, Cohavi Jewellery operated from a store in King Street, Newtown.
All our custom-made jewellery was made on the premises in our workshop.
After spending a few years overseas, we returned to Sydney and reignited the business from our home workshop. This time, we were purely focused on customised pieces and high-end gold and precious stones.
While most of our work involved engagement rings in the past, requests for personalised Judaica had started to roll in. As Roni was studying to become a Rabbi, this reflected his spiritual place at the time. He enjoyed taking inspiration from his studies and applying them to his pieces. Our spiritual guide and inspiration, The Lubavitcher Rebbe, says “one should elevate his work into Holiness.” This is done by revealing its true purpose in creation.
We then started making unique Judaica pieces, such as an 18k gold kiddush cup set with rubies and diamonds and a Torah crown consisting of 3kg of sterling silver and set with 201 gemstones. We also started working with 3D imaging, making us one of Sydney’s first adapters of this technology in the jewellery and Judaica industry.
We are currently designing a new range of Judaica including Mezuzah cases, Havdalah spice boxes, Challah boards, and Shabbat and Yom Tov candlestick holders. We also continue to make engagement rings, pendants, bracelets, and earrings.
Using 3D Imaging
At Cohavi Jewellery, producing realistic imagery prior to creation is the key.
Using the latest CAD technology (computer-aided program), we create and visualise the evolving design as a high-quality 3D presentation image. As a result, we transform your idea into a reality before your very eyes.
This is usually the longest part of the process because we endeavour to ensure it’s 100% perfect. From our experience, the finished product is so close to the initial image that clients are extremely satisfied.
