The guide
Kurdish Jewelry.
The sun. The map.
Kurdistan, worn close.
Kurdish jewelry carries the symbols of Kurdistan: the sun of Newroz with 21 rays, the map of Kurdistan and the colours of the flag. This guide covers six Kurdistan necklaces for her and him: what each pendant means, how they are made, and which one is yours.
Every chain is 316L stainless steel with 18K PVD gold or silver plating and an anti-tarnish coating: waterproof, sweat-proof and hypoallergenic, with no colour fading.
The pendant
The sun of Newroz
Twenty-one rays, equal in length. It is the sun of the flag of Kurdistan, and the number points to Newroz on 21 March, when winter ends and fires are lit on the hills. Light, life, a new beginning.
On her wave chain the sun is small and fine, 1.8 cm. On his rope chain it is 2.4 cm and catches the light from across the room.
The pendant
The map, in one outline
The outline of Kurdistan with the sun at its heart and the colours of the flag set in stones: red above, white in the centre, green below. The community speaks of four parts, Bakur, Başûr, Rojhilat and Rojava. This pendant shows them as one shape.
It is the piece people choose to say where they are from without a word.
- Red, for those who fell for freedom
- White, for peace and equality
- Green, for the mountains and the land
