Make a powerful statement and stand for freedom and equality with our River & Sea Earrings, crafted from 925 Silver in a historic jewelry workshop in Bethlehem. This workshop, which has been operational for over fifty years, has been owned by an Armenian-Palestinian family for generations. It employs 15 Palestinian artisans from Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza, representing both Muslim and Christian, as well as Arab and Armenian communities.

Chosen for collaboration by the Sumud Stories initiative, this workshop reflects the diverse heritage of historical Palestine. Prior to the Nakba in 1948, this region was a place where different religions and ethnicities coexisted peacefully from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea. Our earrings celebrate this legacy of coexistence and the ongoing pursuit of dignity, liberty, and equality for all, emphasising a vision for a future where universal human rights are upheld from the river to the sea, and that Palestine will be free. 

By Sumud Stories™

Welcome to Sumud Stories – where each product we create is a celebration of collaboration, craftsmanship, and resilience. Our journey starts in Palestine, a land known for its deep historical roots and a culture rich with diverse artisanal practices. Here, we work closely with local artisans, combining their traditional techniques with innovative designs to craft pieces that narrate the rich artisanal industry of Palestine and its people.

"Sumud" means steadfastness in Arabic, reflecting our commitment to endure and thrive despite challenges. This ethos is woven into every aspect of our work, guiding our artisans as they produce items that are not only culturally significant but also of the highest quality.

We are a collective of Palestinian artisans, each contributing their unique story of resilience and creativity to the products they make. Our mission is to bring the beauty and richness of Palestinian craftsmanship to the world, connecting people with our heritage through items that resonate with deep cultural significance.

Sumud Stories stands as a celebration of the enduring spirit of Palestine and its people. We invite you to explore our collection, learn about the stories behind each piece, and join us in honoring a legacy that continues to inspire and evolve. Together, we carry forward the narrative of Sumud, one beautiful piece at a time.
