This pendant is made with gold I recycled in-studio. With the texture of the raw edges still maintained, this circular charm was then hand-engraved with over 70 cuts to imitate the stitches of the ‘Reesh’ motif– representing feathers, inspired by versions of the design found in Tatreez (the art of Palestinian embroidery). The hand-engravings are bright-cut and combined with a satin finish, allowing the cuts to dance along the surface of the gold.
Inspired by versions of the Reesh motif preserved digitally via the Tirazain archives.
