The Beirut National Museum and the dazzling Rafik Hariri Mosque are two examples that highlight the city’s dedication
to historical information, and beautiful architecture.
Lebanon is also home to featured jewelry designer Alda Chahine.

I really enjoy exploring jewelry collections highlighting a
wide range of styles.
I enjoy seeing a jeweler transition from an ethereal wire work design to a lithe, sculptural metal piece. Chahine’s online gallery exemplifies this kind of range.

Working with gold vermeil and luminous semi-precious
gemstones like red serpentine, amazonite, and amethyst Chahine creates drop
earrings, cuff bracelets and cocktail rings with warmth and movement.
Curvaceous lines cradle gemstones; metal drapes like silk
ribbons; and winding metallic lines develop webs that hold a sprinkle of
gemstones. Her aesthetic is at once
haute, sexy, and sculptural; eye-catching, powerful pieces that make a
statement.
In fact these robust, handmade jewelry creations are fit for
a beauty queen! During the Q&A
segment for the 2014 Miss World Pageant
first runner-up Edina Kulcsar, Miss Hungary, wore the brand’s BO Tango Earrings. Chahine brings a wealth of creative outlets
to her fashionable yet eclectic brand, and loves jewelry “with solid presence.”
“My life is crafted by a passion for nature and art. Harmony and beauty is something I had an intense interest in. I studied architecture, political science, painting and ballet. These elements come together in my jewelry. They give my designs its signature quality,” says the native of Beirut.

“The essence of each piece is a poetic celebration of
curves, femininity and modern elegance.
They seem to dance with dynamism; inviting the senses to journey into
glamour. I believe my jewelry is a hymn
to women with personality.”
