Presenting RUWAYA’s New Collections<br />

THE FORT<br />

RUWAYA - Upcoming collection<br />

Qasr Al Hosn was the first permananent structure built during the 18th<br />

century. Sheikh Shakhbut, moved the seat of power from Liwa to Abu Dhabi<br />

Island, using the fort as his seat of government. The Fort by Ruwaya Jewellery<br />

combines the buildings’ architectural elements with contemporary designs,<br />

creating pieces that commemorate the historical building. The craftsmanship<br />

guided by the lines and textures of Qasr Al Hosn result in pieces that embody<br />

the strength and resilience of the nation.<br />

ARABESQUE<br />

LOUVRE<br />

Inspired by the architectural marvel, The Louvre Abu Dhabi, this piece represents a geometric<br />

combination of light, movement and art. Its bold yet soft appeal is both modern and daring. A truly<br />

signature creation, it is sure to shine on those who wear it.<br />

TREASURE ROSE<br />

This collection is inspired by the Georgian<br />

period where the jewellery was handcrafted<br />

with incredibly labor-intensive processes. The<br />

craftsmanship was an important element to<br />

the jewellery during this period which<br />

highlighted the authenticity of the pieces.<br />

In the honor of the year Zayed, Ruwaya jewellery looks to the architectural<br />

details of the Sheikh Zayed Grand mosque for inspiration. Its beautifully<br />

intricate architectural elements act as a source of influence for Ruwaya’s<br />

Arabesque collection. The Arabesque collection is made with multi-color sapphires<br />

adorned with diamonds creating bold and beautiful pieces expressing the Grand mosque’s<br />

use of color and shadows.<br />
