Jewelry Pippa Small | 18Kt Gold & Silver Pstm Jordan Gold Jump Ring Necklace

This Piece Is Inspired By Ancient Chain Techniques From The Middle East, The Rolls Of The Wire Creating A Thick Rounded Link. We Have Added The Central Gold Links To Bring Warm Light To The Piece.

The Unisex Collection Was Inspired By The Use And Mix Of These Two Precious Metals During The Roman, Persian And Ottoman Empires In The Middle East. The Area Was The Birthplace Of Modern Civilisations, Farming, And Trade And Has A Fascinating History Of Movement, Innovation, Arts And Science.

There Are Not A Great Many Naturally Occurring Gemstones In The Region, So I Wanted To Concentrate On Locally Sourced Materials, Proudly Working With The Turquoise Mountain Foundation Arts Project In Jordan.

As The Syrian Conflict Enters Its Second Decade, The Traditions Which Provide Meaning And Pride For People Have Been Endangered. Turquoise Mountain Has Spent The Last Twelve Years Specialising In Bringing High-End Artisan Products To International Markets By Training And Supporting Artisans Displaced By War From Syria, Yemen, Iraq And Palestine. They Have Begun Their Work In Jordan Intending To Train A New Generation Of Syrian And Jordanian Artisans To Maintain Important Cultural Traditions, Creating Jobs And Supporting Artisan Businesses.
