18kt Gold Bethlehem Zaytun Leaf Hoops

18kt gold zaytun (olive) leaf hoop earrings, handmade in Bethlehem. "A year and a half ago, I travelled to Bethlehem to embark on a new project. There, I had the pleasure of meeting the artisans of the Golden Zaytouna workshop, Tawfeeq and Samer Qattan, father and son, and Nadira Alaraj. Their work focuses particularly on the olive leaf—an ancient symbol of peace and wisdom and a source of life and livelihood. I’m pleased to be able to share the Zaytun (Olive) collection, which celebrates their traditional techniques in 18kt gold. Sales of the collection will directly support the artisans who handcrafted the pieces, and 20% of profits will also support the charity World Central Kitchen." - Pippa Small.
