Live from Baselworld: Yvel’s Gold on Pearls

As if gorgeous baroque South Seas pearls needed further embellishment, Yvel has coated some of its strands in rich 18k yellow gold to enhance natural golden and creamy white hues.

“It’s a casting process we do for each pearl, according to the shape of the pearl,” explains Isaac Levy, owner, who says there’s almost “zero thickness of gold” on each.
