This series of cuff bracelets incorporate the inscription 'bismillah al rahman al rahem', which translates to 'in the name of Allah, the most gracious, most merciful'. The style of Arabic script used is known as 'square kufic'. The square kufic style is derived from an architectural tradition where it was applied as a pattern on to buildings with a square grid. As a result it becomes difficult to define the letters and words, creating a beautiful geometric pattern. |

Copper and brass cuff bracelet
Art nouveau could be said to be the first 20th century modern style. It was the first style to stop looking backwards in history for ideas, taking inspiration instead from what it saw around it, in particular the natural world. Flowers were very largely stylised and as a result are hard to recognise. In this piece I have incorporated the form of a tulip that has been broken down to its simplistic geometric forms. |
