On this pendant, Ahmad, a Palestinian jeweler from Al-Quds (Jerusalem), engraved the opening words of one of Mahmoud Darwish’s most iconic poems:
"على هذه الأرض ما يستحق الحياة"
(“On this earth, there is what deserves life”).
These words, filled with hope, resilience, and love for the land, turn this jewel into more than an ornament—it becomes a living symbol of identity and meaning.
Each pendant is entirely handmade from sterling silver 925, crafted with care and precision. All our jewelry is stamped sterling silver 925, guaranteeing authenticity and quality.
Make it even more personal with a custom engraving on the back—a name, date, or meaningful phrase. For those seeking an extra touch of elegance, the pendant is also available with a gold plating option (+15€). A sterling silver chain is included with every order.
Beyond its beauty, this pendant carries within it a fragment of Palestinian history and culture. It is the perfect choice for those who wish to wear a jewel that is both elegant and deeply symbolic.
Also available in bracelet.

Ahmad is a third-generation jeweler, continuing his family's legacy in the heart of Jerusalem’s Old City, where he runs his own workshop. A true artisan and artist, he handcrafts each piece of jewelry from start to finish with exceptional care and precision.
Specializing in gold and silver, Ahmad is particularly passionate about antique Palestinian coins, which he transforms into unique, history-infused jewelry pieces. He also offers customizable designs and a refined collection of Roman glass jewelry, made from nearly 2,000-year-old fragments found in Palestine.
Since October 7, 2023, Ahmad—like many Palestinian artisans in Jerusalem—has faced a devastating situation. With the disappearance of tourism and the closure of most shops in the Old City, he has been unable to sell his work. On top of this, he faces regular harassment from the Israeli police due to his creations rooted in Palestinian heritage.
Now 35 years old and the father of three children, Ahmad continues to create with passion and resilience, driven by his love for his craft, the memory of his land, and the vital support of people like you.
