Our artisans

  Skilled in the art of shaping metals, and experts in engravings, the Azawagh smiths create silver jewellery characterised by symmetry, clear and straight lines.

• The North

  The first golden adornments in the Northern Countries came from the European continent, about 4000 years ago. They must have been something very unusual and unique.
