Wearing the evil eye is an ancient tradition in the region, believed to have the power to ward off negative forces like jealousy and curses. These earrings are hand-crafted with brass wire by Bedouin women artisans.

Noor Al-Qamar

Noor Al-Qamar, Arabic for moonlight, is a jewelry-making project established in Jerusalem in 2012 in Anata as a project of Bedouin Silver Tent Association in cooperation with the Italian NGO Vento di Terra. Since entering the partnership with Sunbula in 2016, the women underwent further training by the designers Amir Salameh, Shireen Salman, and Maro Sandrouni, to upgrade their skills and products. Their collection includes necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and Christmas ornaments, made of brass, semi-precious stones, and hand-spun natural sheep wool.

Sunbula, a Jerusalem-based non-profit fair trade organization, is a platform that supports marginalized women and communities in the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and Palestinian communities within Israel through traditional artisanal crafts.
