Classic Bukhara Emirate Coin Sterling Silver Drop Earrings - Memoirs from the Road

Artisan Organization: Ramz Jewel

Country: Silk Road

"My name is Ramz Jewel and I attended an art college in Uzbekistan where I learned the craft of jewelry making. My father was the person who influenced me during this time.

I incorporate traditional ornaments into my products, showcasing the region's classic patterns. Lately, I've expanded into crafting jewelry inspired by ancient architecture, using fragments from 14th-15th century mayolika buildings and even modernistic structures in Tashkent. At times, I recreate ancient jewelry and draw inspiration from old traditional designs, blending them with modern jewelry. In ancient times, jewelry was bulky and heavy, which doesn't align with today's lifestyle.

I strive to create unique products, finding inspiration in the world around me. Design ideas often stem from building facades, nature, and ancient art. My goal is to elevate my brand to an international level, aiming for instant recognition of my jewelry designs. Each of my creations should possess a distinctive signature.

I find inspiration in the quote by Genghis Khan, which says, 'If you are afraid, don't do it. If you are doing it, don't be afraid.'""
