Nadia Dajani, Jordan’s leading jewellery designer and the founder of Al Bareeq Jewellery Trading Company, will be the first Jordanian to take part in the upcoming prestigious International Jewellers Fair scheduled to be held between September 3 and 6 at London’s Earl’s Court exhibition.
Commenting on her participation at the show, Nadia Dajani said: “Our participation in IJL 2006 is in line with our commitment to raise Jordan’s profile by promoting our hand-made contemporary jewellery which inspired by the culture and heritage of Jordan. Our presence at the world’s most prominent jewellery exhibition will enable us to showcase our original design creations as well as closely interact and network with some of the major players in the jewellery industry”
The International Jewellers Fair is the largest and most prominent jewellery exhibition in the world. It brings together leading companies in the industry from around the world and offers a unique opportunity for buyers to meet with up and coming designer makers showcasing new, contemporary jewellery that is very much in demand by today’s consumer.
Nadia Dajani will showcase original pieces from some of her key collections which have received incredible success in the region, including the Salam (Peace) collection, the Copper Collection, the Amulets & Talismans Collection, the Byzantine Collection as well as unique silver and golden designs.
The “Salam” Peace collection finds its inspiration in the vitality of the symbolism of the written word, and in the art of Arabic calligraphy. Words that are of significance to people regardless of their religion, nationality or age are engraved on the silver charms using Arabic calligraphy. Garnets, pearls and semi precious stones are held together with silver and leather.
Nadia Dajani has carved a niche for herself in the Middle East by applying her architectural design background to create unique jewellery collections. Her jewellery finds its inspiration in natural forms, in the vitality of the symbolism of the written word, and in the art of Arabic calligraphy. She is keen to experiment with different materials to produce unique designs and collections; hence her collections have incorporated materials such as leather, Najaf fabric as well as semi- precious stones.
