Turkish ottoman rings
Turkey, once the heart of the Ottoman Empire, has a long history of jewellery making. Its jewellery historically represented the mystery, seduction and romance of the East. Sovereigns, aristocrats and notable women of the Harem famously wore luxurious jewellery, as it often represented one’s wealth and social status. As the jewellery trade flourished during the 15th and 16th Centuries with the expansion of the Empire, a noticeable Ottoman aesthetic developed. Colour, strict symmetry and the natural state of a stone or metal were typical, as were natural motifs.[1] Symmetry, intricacy and vibrancy thus characterised Ottoman jewellery.
Today, these age-old traditions and techniques are still being employed, as jewellers aim to preserve their craft. The Istanbul been credited with reinvigorating and perpetuating his artistic and cultural heritage by telling the story of Istanbul through his jewellery. He integrates different aspects of Ottoman artistry with miniature paintings, unique gem settings, calligraphy, mosaics and engravings in his work.The jewellery brand Urart even works alongside the Istanbul Archaeological Museum to ensure the authenticity of its designs, which are inspired by the ancient civilisations of Anatolia. Its Love Tablet series, for example, incorporates reproductions of ancient Hittite cuneiform tablets in precious metals. Reflecting a bygone era through aesthetic brilliance in jewellery making, traditional Ottoman-inspired pieces are becoming ever more coveted by customers worldwide.
