classic aesthetics. Besides launching two

provides a bespoke design service for clients

CARATELL
This home-grown brand is a familiar
name to many, and has come a long way
since it was founded in 2004. Started by
award-winning designers Michael Koh and
his wife, Achillea Teng, Caratell has since
expanded its repertoire signifi cantly and has
also participated in myriad international
design and jewellery events. While being a
trusted name that many go to for diamond
and elegant wedding jewellery, Caratell is
also known for its outstanding creativity in
its other bolder creations. This is exemplifi ed
in its Ever Foliage collection, which won the
Singapore category at the Creative Asean
jewellery competition in 2015.
