About Us

OUR HISTORY JEWISH JEWELRY & JUDAICA

Baltinester Jewelry & Judaica, a specialty retail jewelry store, first opened its doors in 1949, becoming one of the earliest jewelry stores to be located on Jaffa Street – the longest and oldest road in Jerusalem, now lined with shops, cafes and restaurants, pulsating with life and energy.
The two brothers, Yoram and Rami took over the store in 1995 with dreams of taking it international by establishing an online storefront, and today Baltinester is recognized worldwide as a trusted source for Jewish Jewelry and Judaica with innovative designs, legendary styling and the signature Baltinester touch – highly personalized service!

Customer Stories

I have been shopping at Baltinester for over 40 years!

If I am in Israel I shop in the store, but if I need something before my next trip I am confident that Yoram will send out the exact right thing.

Shopping online from Alaska, I desired a ring from the ‘heart of Jerusalem’

And that was Baltinester, whose personal customer service, Yoram and his team, is unequalled and made the purchasing experience totally delightful!

Beautiful pendant!

2nd pendant I have purchased and couldn’t be more pleased. Love it, thanks!

Great service & the rings are stunning!

Delivered from Israel in two days to the USA, exactly as ordered…no mistakes. Thank you very much!

Incredibly fast service & delighted with the product!

The sweets were delicious too!

The pendant is absolutely perfect!

I just wanted to thank you again for working with me so I can own the nicest lion of Judah I have ever seen.

We are thrilled with our rings!

My husband and I got this wedding band; we wanted to match. They are beautiful and we really love them! The service was wonderful!

I absolutely recommend Baltinester to everyone who wants to get more than he/she is looking for!

I live in Sydney and was looking for a ring that would be a unique piece of artwork, a result of imagination and creative composition, something one cannot buy – at least so I thought. The Baltinester product I got is an absolute masterpiece that feels like it was made only for me.

Not only are the rings more beautiful than we could have imagined, the service was beyond our expectations!

My husband and I purchased rings to renew our wedding vows for our 30th anniversary.  We began communicating with Yoram while in the US, and upon arrival in Jerusalem, Yoram met us at our hotel!  With a huge hug, and wonderful smile!

Unmatched quality, quick service.

I have to admit I was a little nervous ordering from so far away even though I wanted my ring to come from Israel. Communication was amazing and Yoram made sure each detail was covered. The ring is simply breathtaking. Thank you Yoram for a piece I will cherish and enjoy wearing for years!
