NADIA DAJANI JEWELLERY TWO COPPER BEAD AND EVIL EYE EARRINGS

COPPER COLLECTION

These earrings have been hand-knitted by our artisans in our Mugablein workshop.

From the legendary copper mines in southern Jordan, comes a collection of delicate handmade jewellery.

Tassels of copper and colourful stones echo those that adorn Bedouin tents; and traditional amulets such as the turquoise beads and the Evil Eye ward off malicious vibes transmitted by jealousy and envy.
