There is a popular fashion adage that states one can never go wrong with black. Yehouda Saketkhou, founder of San Francisco-based high jewelry company Yael Designs, seems to have abided by that style policy for his latest collection.

Christened “Mosaic”, the collection revolves around the use of black and white diamonds to create hypnotizing patterns set against white or two-tone gold. True to its name, the artfully arranged diamonds collectively form swirls, spirals and intricate geometric motifs.

While the use of black and white diamonds have been a favored dynamic duo for years, Saketkhou puts a dramatic spin on his pieces, maximizing the ebony shine of the black diamonds to transform it into a classic staple with a modern, dramatic edge.

The “Mosaic” collection ranges from $5000 to $15,000.
