Phoenician heritage
Phoenicia is an ancient region, corresponding to modern Lebanon, with adjoining parts of modern Syria and Israel. Jewelry manufacturing in Phoenicia was not only an artisanal tradition, but also an artistic one, mostly influenced by Egyptians. The most regularly seen shapes and patterns, if not religious themes, used to be nature-inspired or geometrical. This piece - the Ankh shaped gold earrings – used to be one of the most popular pieces.
