ODE TO THE MYSTICS
Step into the mystery.
A love letter to the extraordinary. We have paired rare, exotic textures with the romance of a singular narrative. Pure beauty, captured in every stitch.
Named for the Arabic and Persian word for the Sun, this piece is the heartbeat of our Ode to the Mystics capsule. It is a vessel of pure vitality, captured in a soul-stirring vibrant red that mirrors the first ignite of a desert dawn. At its center, a bold zig-zag pattern traces the rhythmic pulse of light, balanced by the cool, sophisticated depths of petrol blue. Cascading with a dramatic vibrant red fringe that dances like a flickering flame, the Shams is edged with the protective glitter of black sparkly spinel, the "stone of revitalization." Hints of ancient Sioux blue beads anchor this celestial fire in the wisdom of the earth. For the woman who is a force of nature, The Shams is a radiant talisman of courage, designed to carry your light into every room you enter.
Featuring: Italian suede, 1800’s French blue seed beads, black spinel, hand-cut fringe and handles, braided handles, vintage African charms.
Meet Zarin : A luminous alchemy. Named for the Persian word for "golden," this piece is a radiant pillar within our Ode to the Mystics capsule. It is a dialogue between the desert and the stars. She is a shimmering bridge where the geometric precision of an Egyptian rug meets the raw, soulful energy of the Silk Road. She is a masterwork of contrast. The structure is defined by the grounding weight of large African brass beads and the weathered wisdom of off-white ancient seed beads, carrying the dust of history in every stitch. Yet, it is set ablaze by a sea of gold pyrite, culminating in a rhythmic pyrite fringe that dances with every movement. Zarin is a vessel of pure light. She is designed for the woman who carries her own sun… a golden talisman of abundance and ancient power that turns the mundane into the monumental.
Featuring: 24k Gold (22 microns) on silver with diamonds + garnets sword, pyrite and garnet signature Arella center braid, Italian bovine, hand-braided handle, hand-cut deer fringe, African brass beads.
Named after the Nordic goddess of winter and the hunt, Skadi is a luxurious handbag blending golden hide and cream elk hide. This crossbody features a signature braided seam accented with African silver beads and cream deer lace. Adorned with antler and African charms, the bag includes hand-braided deer handles, hand-cut fringe, and a silk ikat Uzbekistan lining with an interior pocket.
In the heart of the Persian night, there is an arrow that does not wound, but awakens. The Tir-e-Shab is a masterpiece of shadow, crafted from supple black deer and etched with rhythmic zig-zag trapunto lines that mirror a sudden flash of lightning across a midnight sky. At its center, a hand-carved black obsidian arrowhead (the ancient stone of truth) is ignited by the fire of white diamonds. It is a vessel of deep intuition, designed for the woman who finds her greatest clarity in the dark
