The story

The Arabian horse has been bred, raced and celebrated in poetry for centuries. Khayl carries that pride of the desert into the home.

How it's made

Drawn in our Dubai studio and modelled in 3D with Tsukuri at NYU Abu Dhabi. Each charm is cast in solid brass in Lebanon, then filed and polished by hand by a jeweller. No two are exactly alike.
