Qamar
Handcrafted sterling silver crescent moon pendant on a brass wire necklet, entirely crafted and finished by hand with a matte finish. Its form carries intentional irregularities and a sense of rawness, evoking the feeling of an ancient archaeological relic.
Qamar, meaning moon in Arabic, draws from traditional Bahraini and Gulf jewelry, where the crescent moon symbol (hilal) holds deep ties to lunar time and cultural memory. The crescent is reimagined here as a contemporary interpretation of this symbol, honoring both the rich heritage of Arabian adornment and the process of making.
Only one Qamar exists. Each curve and surface was shaped and finished by hand, carrying the marks of its creation. Its rawness and irregularity are part of its character, setting it apart as a collectible piece for someone who values cultural memory, craftsmanship, and individuality.
Care
To preserve the piece: wear and handle with care. Avoid contact with salt water, chlorinated water, perfumes, oils, and harsh chemicals. Store it gently in its box or pouch when not in use. Silver and brass naturally deepens in tone over time and can be brightened with the polishing cloth provided. With mindful handling, it will remain a personal relic to be treasured for years to come.
