The story: In the art of jewellery, charms depicting everyday objects from the Arab or Oriental world – such as the slipper, the dallah coffee pot, the amphora or the palm tree – celebrate a deep and sensitive cultural memory. Heirs to a tradition where every object carries meaning, these miniature jewels embody hospitality, the warmth of homes, childhood memories and shared roots. Highly prized in Ottoman and Maghreb jewelry of the nineteenth century, these symbols were often given to bring good luck, honor family ties or tell a personal story. Worn as pendants or assembled into bracelets, they become fragments of identity, mixing aesthetics, nostalgia and transmission.
