In addition to revealing its role as the Educator sponsor for Abu Dhabi Art 2021, Mouawad announced its collaboration with Dubai-based, Emirati fine jewellery designer, Salama Khalfan.
The fruit of this partnership is a unique, one-of-a-kind item of adornment, an extraordinary headpiece set with a dazzling array of diamonds and emeralds crafted and set by the hands of master Mouawad craftsmen in a design that is inspired by and pays tribute to the date palm tree for its special place at the heart of culture and life of the Gulf region.
Fourth generation Mouawad Co-Guardians Fred, Alain and Pascal Mouawad commented, “It has been a great pleasure to collaborate with Salama Khalfan on creating an extraordinary object of beauty and adornment, knowing that we both share a passion for timeless sophistication and incredible gemstones. This collaboration is particularly meaningful, with the design paying tribute to the nature and culture of the Middle East.”
The Mouawad X Salama Khalfan headpiece will be showcased during Abu Dhabi Art, which is held under the patronage His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Member of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council, Chairman of Abu Dhabi Executive Office, and will take place from 17 - 21 November, 2021, at Manarat Al Saadiyat.
