These are jewels inspired by the lost Nubian kingdom of Kush and its stories of female power, resilience and opulence lost during ancient Egypt. The jewels, especially the earrings, are made of gold, layers of enamel and custom cut gems. The shapes refer to the more than 200 thin pyramids discovered in the Nubian capital of Mero\u00eb mixed with an Art-Deco style, deconstructed using linear shapes in rich 18-karat yellow and white gold. The jewels are enriched with triangular and round brilliant diamonds (of ethical origin), black onyx discs, pastel morganites, deep red rhodolites and golden pearls, which reflect the colors of the landscapes along the high Nile delta. Inside each piece of the collection is the eye of Horus, which symbolizes protection, royal power and (for those who believe in it) good health for the wearer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_108672\"
