Before embarking on his own small
business, Yaroslav Shukel spent over twelve years working for the jewelry
industry in both Boston and New York. The training and experience provided
him with skills of the highest magnitude. With the opening of Aurora
Studio in January 2000, Yaroslav decided to tailor his jewelry
designs for the discerning customer, with time honored craftmanship and
elegant designs.
Over the past six years, Yaroslav has been honored to receive a number of highly regarded awards recognizing his fine craftmanship and designs. While much of his custom work remains focused on traditional designs, he enjoys the excitement of using modern forms to create elegant designs. If you are thinking of having one-of-a-kind jewelry designed and have questions about the process and possibilities feel free to contact us. We are always happy to answer your questions.
