Melek Taus Jewellery

Melek Taus Jewellery

Melek Taus Jewellery is an innovative collection of contemporary jewelry pieces that draws profound inspiration from religious mythology and angelic symbolism, specifically centered around the figure of Melek Taus, the Peacock Angel. Created by designer Samira Mazloom in 2011, this sophisticated jewelry collection masterfully interprets the narrative of the first angel to emerge from the Light of God in the form of a seven-rayed rainbow. The collection's signature pieces include meticulously crafted earrings that uniquely follow the natural curve of the ear, featuring a distinctive design element of a detachable Cosmic Egg component that offers versatile wearing options. Crafted primarily in silver to achieve optimal wearability while maintaining intricate detail work, the collection demonstrates exceptional attention to both aesthetic beauty and functional design. The artistic interpretation incorporates symbolic elements representing the seven colors of the rainbow, with particular emphasis on the color blue, symbolizing the heavens and celestial realm. This thoughtfully conceived jewelry line, which earned a Bronze A' Design Award in the Jewelry Design category in 2013, represents the first installment in a series of seven collections inspired by archangels, combining religious symbolism with contemporary jewelry design. The collection stands out for its ability to translate complex theological concepts into wearable art pieces, demonstrating innovative craftsmanship and meaningful design narrative while maintaining practical functionality.
