A legacy of craft and beauty is born with the launch of KAHAWATY JEWELS, a fine jewelry house founded by humanitarian and serial entrepreneur Jessica Kahawaty and her father, master jeweler Ghassan Kahawaty. Bringing together three decades of artisanal expertise with a contemporary, feminine design, KAHAWATY JEWELS introduces a new language of luxury rooted in authenticity, intimacy, and emotion.
Inspired by the year Jessica was born and the year her father took the reins of the family business in 1988, the debut collection octagon is a tribute to heritage and continuity. The eight sided motif, universally symbolizing infinity, becomes the foundation for sculptural, modern designs that speak to women who view their jewelry as an extension of strength and self expression.
Beyond the Octagon collection, clients are invited to the Jumeirah 1 boutique located on the Ground Floor at The Court Residence to explore a wider curation of timeless pieces, from classic tennis bracelets and engagement rings to one-of-a-kind creations. Personalization lies at the core of KAHAWATY JEWELS experience, offering clients the opportunity to co-create custom jewelry, handpick loose stones for bespoke creations or explore the wider collection of pieces they can try on, guided by the Kahawatys’ expertise and intimate, hands-on approach. Each piece is meticulously crafted with GIA-certified natural diamonds sourced globally, brought to life in master ateliers across Sydney, Hong Kong, and Dubai.
For Jessica, this launch is a dream come to life. “I’ve watched my father work with vision and integrity ever since I was young. He used to present clients their dream jewellery pieces in his stores back in Australia, and building this brand alongside him is the greatest privilege,” she says.
“Jewelry should be more than an accessory. With Kahawaty Jewels, we’re creating emotion, legacy, shaped by beauty, purpose and connection.”
“Each piece captures an emotional milestone, crafted with care to be treasured today and handed down through generations,” adds Ghassan.
KAHAWATY JEWELS brings back the intimate spirit of family jewellers where craftsmanship
meets character and designs meet timeless heirlooms.
