Studio

A personal meeting at the Sheinkin studio for handmade jewelry — measurement, sculpting, and the making.

1. Book a meeting

Write otilyas@gmail.com or call +972-54-782-9289 and ask for a studio appointment.

The studio is at Sheinkin 17, Tel Aviv. Visits are by appointment — write first. We do not list walk-in hours.
2. The conversation

We sit together and talk about the piece: who it is for, how it should sit on the body, Fine jewelry (solid gold) or Wearable art (gold-plated).

You do not need a finished idea. Photos of what you like help. Nothing is required.
3. Taking a measurement

For a ring, we take the size on your finger and check how the form sits — width, height, and how it moves when you close your hand.

For earrings or a necklace we try existing OTILYAS shapes so you feel the scale before we sculpt yours.
4. Sculpting the form

The shape is made by hand: wax or metal, cut, bent, and built until the sculpture is right on the body.

You can stay for this part. This is the appointment — not a shop visit. You see the form before it becomes the finished piece.
5. In the making

After the form is agreed, the metal work continues in the studio: building, finishing, and setting if there is a stone.

You can come back for a making visit if you want to be part of a later step. Say so when we book.
6. The piece is yours

Handmade work is slow on purpose. Making time is usually 2–3 weeks. I do my best to shorten it.

Collect at Sheinkin 17 or we ship. Same care as the rest of the shop.
Fine jewelry or Wearable art

Same OTILYAS shapes. Two metals.

Fine jewelry is solid gold — shop Fine.

Wearable art is gold-plated fashion jewelry — shop Wearable art.

We choose the line in the meeting so you never mix them by mistake.
