'Lapis Maze' Taweez Initial Necklace

The pendant is entirely handmade: forged from pure 23.5K gold, intricately engraved by hand, then inlaid with powdered glass enamel (meenakari) and fired in a high-heat kiln - a process that fuses the colors permanently to the gold. As a finishing touch, gemstones set using the ancient technique of 24K gold foil, create a soft setting that enhances the enamel.

Reversible and richly detailed on every side, including its edges, this pendant is a modern heirloom that reflects old-world artistry. It carries an initial of your choosing, and within it, the ancient Indo-Islamic floral motif, symbolizing the fullness of life, abundance, and the natural world’s sleeping potential - now awakening in you.

The shape of the pendnant echoes the Taweez - a traditional amulet form, worn close to the heart to protect, empower, and carry sacred words or intentions. In this modern interpretation, the shape becomes a vessel of beauty, memory, and meaning.

A contemporary talisman, the Lapis Maze is both personal and timeless - a piece made to be worn every day and passed down across generations.
