Tillya Tepe to Today
Afghan Craftsmanship
In 1978 an Afghan-Soviet team of archaeologists discovered a hoard of over 20,000 ornaments, jewellery, and precious artefacts in Northern Afghanistan. Dated back to the first century BCE, the Tillya Tepe hoard is renowned for its staggering beauty and finesse.
Afghanistan's rich jewellery tradition continues to this day. Stimulated by influences from across the ancient silk road and tribal traditions within Afghanistan, Afghan jewellers benefit from direct access to an array of fine precious and semi-precious gemstones, including emeralds, rubies, lapis lazuli, tourmaline and kunzite.
The bluest blue
Lapis Lazuli
Blue is one of the rarest colours found in nature. Up until the 18th century, whether you were a Pharaoh or an artist, there was only one place you could find blue in its natural form - the high peaks of north-eastern Afghanistan.
When ground into a fine powder, Lapis gives a strikingly blue pigment. This made Lapis a priceless commodity, surpassing the price of gold up until the industrial age,
To this day, Afghanistan remains home to the world's largest deposit of Lapis Lazuli. Due to this, you'll find Lapis in many of the jewellery pieces we offer.
