Jacob & Co.

Russian jeweler Jacob Arabo built his business in the late 1990s when bling was having its moment in the media spotlight. So unabashed and indulgent are Jacob's jewelry designs, today the jeweler can count Nelly, Nas, Jennifer Lopez, 50 Cent, and even Karl Lagerfeld as clients. In the early 2000s Arabo ventured into diamond-encrusted timepieces and found a second wave of success. 90s excess might be a thing of the past, but uptown, at Arabo's "mine inspired" flagship, there will always be someone who wants to show it off.
