The diamond mask by Jacob & Co

Published on September 4, 2020

There is an accessory that all women have had in their bags for a few months. No, it’s not sunglasses or a make-up set. It is the mask that the evil covid has forced everyone to keep at hand, or rather, of the nose. After the blue or white masks in the classic color used by doctors and nurses, the colored masks, with floral or geometric motifs, most appreciated by women, have appeared. Now, however, it is possible to take another leap forward thanks to the diamond mask.

The idea comes from Jacob & Co, a New York Maison founded by Jacob Arabo in 1986. The brand, specializing in luxury jewelry, has created the Diamond Face Mask. It is composed of an 18-karat white gold link studded with 3,040 round-cut white diamonds, weighing over 73 carats. The idea is defined by the Maison as a way to escape the ordinary world and enjoy the extravagance. But beware, the Diamond Face Mask is designed to be worn over a real face mask. Fortunately, it weighs little: 156.9 grams, even if it has a price not exactly within everyone’s reach: $ 250,000.

Luster earrings by Jacob & co: a cascade of diamonds that sway ♦

Fanciful, a bit strange for jewelers with long pedigrees, loved by rap artists: Jacob Arabo and his Jacob & co constitute a unique case in the world of luxury. And after years he is still able to amaze, as for creations like the Luster earrings, which sparkle with 200 baguette-cut diamonds hanging individually (from 23.53 to 26.89 carats in total), on white gold and with over 400 white diamonds for the pavé. Furthermore, the earrings are light and sway with every movement of the wearer, with a captivating effect.

The jeweler’s success, in fact, is due precisely to these unusual creations. And the designer’s story is also unique. After graduating in jewelry design in 1981, in New York, Arabic opened a small shop in the city’s Diamond District, where he began designing for private clients and jewelers. In 1986, Arabo opened his company, called Diamond Quasar, and began designing with his label, called Jacob & Co. The jewels, very lively, initially attracted the attention of singer Faith Evans, who later her husband, the rapper BIG, was brought to the boutique. Word of mouth has begun in New York’s musical environment and Jacob’s jewels have become popular. Thanks to its unique products and its famous clientele, the brand has thus gained popularity, even expanding into luxury watchmaking since 2002. But without forgetting the jewels. Lavinia Andorno

Three brooches signed by Jacob & Co in the shape of a bee: this is the Abielle mini-collection ♦

For some time the brooches are back in fashion, much to the surprise of those who thought they were a mania of the grandmother. Forget that: the brooches enliven a dress, concentrate attention, enrich an outfit. In short, they serve. In addition, the brooches also allow you to add a touch of transgression or, at least, of originality. In fact, they often have the shape of flowers or insects. As in the case of the Abielle mini-collection by Jacob & Co.

The collection consists of three bee-shaped brooches. To note the curious variant of the word bee in French (abeille) that here is turned into Abielle.

In any case, the three bees of the collection are made of white gold with small brilliant cut diamonds that make up the upper part of the body, while the lower one is made up of an invisible setting of blue or yellow sapphires, or rubies. The eyes of the insect brooch are of a different stone: sapphires if the body is of rubies and vice versa.

The precious vortices of the Infinia collection by Jacob & Co: diamonds, rubies and emeralds that capture the attention ♦ ︎
Imagine vortexes that chain your sight. As if they were some pinwheels that catch the eye. Or, hypnotic spins that turn and become magnetic for those who see them. These are the aesthetic lines of the Infinia collection by Jacob & Co, a jeweler from New York with a passion for sparkling stones. Capturing the feeling of falling in love and embracing it forever is the declared objective of jewels. In fact, as the name suggests, the Infinia collection aims to bind to the sense of infinity. For a passion? Who knows. The colors, very bright, seem to communicate something that does not go out in time. Maybe. The collection includes jewelery with marquise-cut rubies, white or emerald diamonds, woven with round-cut white diamonds. The set is in 18k white gold and simply includes earrings and rings.

Jacob & co, greatness in pink

A pair of exceptional earrings with morganite for over 100 carats of Jacob & co ♦ ︎
Morganite is a stone that symbolizes “divine love”. Moreover, it is a stone that according to the romantic hearts promote the affections and the spasms of the heart. With a less romantically view, however, the stone is a variety of beryl, and has a delicate pink color, more or less intense. The name morganite, in any case, does not refer to the fairy Morgana, but was conferred by the American mineralogist George Frederick Kunz in honor of the American banker active at the turn of the twentieth century John Pierpont Morgan, stone collector (and founder of one of the largest banks still in business, JP Morgan).
And here is an exceptional use of this refined stone: earrings with over 100 carats of morganite. They were presented at Baselworld by Jacob & Co, Maison of New York who often presents particularly precious pieces of jewelry. The earrings feature a total of four morganite stones. The largest weighs 93.88 carats, while the slightly smaller weighs 6.35 carats. Not only that: 98 pear-shaped diamonds, weighing a total of 8.61 carats, adorn the earrings, which are further accented with over 360 white pavé diamonds. It is almost useless to add that the Jacob & co earrings are unique pieces. Giulia Netrese

Ivanka Trump, jewels with mystery

A financial intrigue behind the jewelery brand linked to Ivanka Trump ♦ ︎
The jewelry brand tied to Ivanka Trump, daughter of the US president, Donald Trump has a problem. A commercial failure? Maybe. But in the United States on the flop of the Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry brand, menacing shadows are gathering.
Read also: Trump’s jewels (Ivanka)
The perspective is that identified by the monthly GQ, US edition. According to the magazine, a court document filed with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York claims that the company Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry was involved in a financial scheme to cover a $ 100 million debt due to Commercial Bank of Dubai from an Emirati Arab family, the Al-Saris, active in oil trading. But what do Ivanka Trump’s jewels have to do with it?
Simple: the Arabs in question would have borrowed money from the bank without being able to repay them. To avoid trouble, they would hide the money by turning them into diamonds purchased from Madison Avenue Diamonds, which is the company to which Ivanka has licensed his name, and also from Jacob Arabo (that of Jacob & Co). Buying diamonds is a way to hide money and avoid seizure: just a jacket or trouser pocket is enough to hide a fortune. The family would then buy properties in Las Vegas.
Ivanka and Jacob Arabo are not accused of being involved in this plan, however. The fact is that the jewelry company with the name of Ivanka, according to the accusation, would have served to cover this financial intrigue, a sort of recycling. Federico Graglia

Mystery of Muzo, two exceptional Jacob & Co bracelets with two as much exceptional emeralds.
The mysteries, sometimes, it is better not reveal them. But other times the best thing to do is watch them closely. This is the case of Mystery of Muzo, presented at Baselworld by Jacob & Co. The two bracelets are characterized with two emeralds pear cut (quite unusual), of 74.33 carats and 70.57 carats. They are Colombian stones (Muzo is the name of the company which extracts the stones in the mine), vivid color, which make more fascinating the Mystery. The Geneva Maison says that to make the two bracelets it took two years.
In adding to the exceptional stones, bracelets show a geometric pattern made with black spinel cut by hand on 18 carat white gold. Needless to say that the bracelets are exceptional pieces, not only for their art-deco-inspired, but also for the 118.13-carat brilliant cut diamonds that wrap around the edges of each cuff, like rays that come from the top of the two emeralds. About the two Mystery it remains just a mystery: who will be able to purchase these memorable pieces of fine jewelry? Giulia Netrese

Jacob & Co celebrates its 30th anniversary. The brand of jewelry and high-end watches, in fact, was founded by Jacob Arabo in 1986. It is now present in 20 countries. He arrived in the US at 14 years old, but when he was 17 had already opened his own workshop (only in the US can happen this). Initially he produced for others famous Maison, then he began offering jewelry under its own brand. Its flagship store is still in New York. At Baselworld the brand has unveiled a super clock, that has received a wow from the most experienced : it is called Astronomy Sky, and has a heavenly dial that rotates once in a sidereal year, the actual time it takes the Earth to make one complete rotation around the sun in relation to the fixed stars. Apart from this, the stand was manned by four models which wore the new jewelry: necklaces and bracelets in the shape of snake, but in unusual colors white, green and yellow gold, and jewelry whit rose gold and diamonds. Least but not last, a necklace in white gold and diamond dagger-shaped: a jewel that can really hit. Lavinia Andorno
