Rooted in tradition, redefined by character.
A Husband & Wife Collaboration
Mati is a modern jewelry studio founded by Celia and Matan, built on a decade-long partnership and a shared devotion to the character of diamonds. Our story is a deliberate blend of new and old: Matan draws on generations of inherited diamond expertise, while Celia brings a fresh, design-led perspective from fashion and marketing. We founded Mati to bridge the gap between thoughtful, modern intent and the uncompromising standards of traditional craftsmanship.Together, we create engagement rings that are personal, enduring, and quietly distinctive—honoring the weight of legacy while embracing a contemporary aesthetic.
Our Perspective
Mati is defined by an appreciation for warmth and form, guided by the belief that a diamond’s value lies in its individuality. While we celebrate the romantic history of antique cuts, we apply that same reverence to modern stones, curating an eclectic inventory that balances conventional brilliance with unconventional character. For us, the diamond always leads the design; trends are never the starting point. Our approach is a commitment to the "beauty of the bench," where the technical craftsmanship Matan inherited is present in every sculptural setting we bring to life in New York. We seek the tension between opposites—precision that feels natural, and simplicity that reveals depth. Whether it is a rare antique find or a refined modern cut, each piece is a one-of-one creation designed to exist once and stay with you for a lifetime.
Our Diamonds
Our inventory is defined by character and individuality, standing out in the market through an eclectic selection of both conventional and unconventional diamonds. We are especially drawn to champagne, yellow, and softly warm-toned stones, yet we maintain a deep appreciation for the timeless beauty of white diamonds. Specializing in both modern and antique cuts, we believe each diamond carries a character all its own. Whether it is the romantic history of an antique stone or the refined precision of a modern cut, every diamond we source is chosen for its soul and intention. By focusing on diamonds with a story to tell, we ensure that every piece we create is truly one of a kind.
