Yafa Signed Jewels will open a 3,000-square-foot-plus location on the second floor of Bal Harbour Shops at 9700 Collins Ave., Bal Harbour, Florida, with an opening date of March 13 announced on the company’s website on Feb. 24, 2026. The Miami boutique is the retailer’s third physical space and occupies a prominent spot in a village in Miami-Dade County known for high-end retail.

The company describes the Bal Harbour store as designed to have a modern aesthetic with Art Deco accents as a nod to Miami’s architecture, crafted to feel more like a luxury hotel suite rather than a traditional store and to invite collectors into an atmosphere of "quiet sophistication." Yafa also states that it will be "the only retailer of signed vintage jewels in the shopping center," a claim published on the Yafa site as part of the opening announcement.

This Miami shop expands Yafa’s physical footprint to three locations: the Palm Beach flagship and a private client salon on New York City’s Fifth Avenue, both cited in coverage of the opening and on Yafa’s site. The move follows the company’s assessment of demand, with National Jeweler reporting Yafa selected Miami because of growing client interest in the city and the greater Latin American region.

Tyler Moradof, principal of Yafa, framed the selection of Bal Harbour Shops in market terms, saying, "Bal Harbour Shops attracts an international clientele of collectors and has evolved into one of the country’s most desirable shopping destinations." Moradof added, "As we continue growing our physical retail presence, we remain committed to creating spaces that are refined yet inviting; this new location will be a clear reflection of that."

Coverage of the opening highlights the caliber of Yafa’s inventory by example, citing a 1949 Van Cleef & Arpels necklace featuring more than 200 carats of diamonds and Van Cleef & Arpels earrings from the 1960s as representative of the vintage signed pieces the retailer trades. An Instagram post from Yafa also noted the March 13 opening, echoing the company announcement on Feb. 24, 2026.

The announcement did not include opening hours, ribbon-cutting or VIP preview details, press contact information, or confirmation whether the cited Van Cleef & Arpels pieces will be displayed in the Miami boutique at launch. Those specifics remain to be confirmed with Yafa and with Bal Harbour Shops management. The March 13 opening will mark the next phase of Yafa’s stated strategy to grow its physical retail presence in markets that attract international collectors.
