This practice-led study investigates a new approach to the design and making of traditional jewellery in Saudi Arabia. Jewellery is very much part of Saudi culture. This research has been prompted by my personal observations that as Saudi culture modernizes traditional jewellery is disappearing and being replaced by jewellery of Western fashion, especially by the younger generations. It is evident that the jewellery worn by Saudi women nowadays falls into one of two categories; traditional or modern. My work demonstrates that Saudi women can have the opportunity to wear jewellery related to their culture while still addressing the desire to move into a modern world. My approach was based on a study of traditional Saudi jewellery styles and techniques. I then experimented with creating new designs that better reflected modern jewellery aesthetics/forms but retained their cultural connections. As part of my study, I investigated two forms that are not found in traditional jewellery in Saudi Arabia, the brooch and convertible or multipurpose jewellery that can be converted into a range of forms. I believe this is one way to break away from conventional traditional forms of jewellery making and widen the concept of wearable art. It is a way to show Saudi women that contemporary jewellery does not have to be Western but can retain traditional elements and be distinctive, and which can be adapted to both traditional and contemporary forms of dress. Once this new approach finds its place in Saudi Arabia, it is hoped that it will become recognisable world-wide as a contemporary form of jewellery that connects with the present and also retains a resonance with its Saudi origins.
