| Zehava Yachin is an Israeli sculptor, jeweler, and artist. For over 25 years she has been exploring art in various different mediums, and teaching it to elementary and middle school students.
Zehava has learned silversmithing at Montgomery College, Maryland, and in Israel with the jeweler Ziva Shahal. She has studied sculpture with the Israeli artist David Peer.
Each piece of Zehava's jewelry is handcrafted. The gems and precious stones used are handpicked from different countries. Her jewelry is unique in its style and subtle use of colors, and is rich with Jewish symbols. While her creations are wide in variety, they all distinctly bear the mark of her artisanship. Zehava's Jewelry has been on exhibition in the Ein-Hod artist village, in Israel.
In sculpting, Zehava has experimented with different materials, such as metal, plaster and marble. Her sculptures have been exhibited in "Beit-Yad-Lebanim" in Ra'anana, Israel. Beilinson Hospital has commissioned her for a sculpture, which is now on permanent display.
In addition to jewelry and sculptures, Zehava has created in many other mediums of art, such as lace-work, painting and drawing.
