In England, Carmel completed original work for Garrard , Aspery , Bvlgari , Tiffany, the Sheikh of Muskat and the Sultan of Malaysia. During the same period he also created the Ascot Cup for the Queen of England. Since 1976 he concentrated solely on creating Jewish Ceremonial art. Being an internationally recognized Judaica Artist, in 1990 Carmel won the prestigious Bar Ilan University Prize of Judaica. Carmel was a member of the Swiss Guild of Silversmiths. He had exhibitions in Jerusalem, Illinois, New York, North Carolina, Virginia, Washington D.C. and Switzerland. The religious articles Carmel created were purchased by "Me'hadrei Mitzva" and Judaica collectors and are exhibited in Israel and Jewish museums worldwide.
