US Duties Incl: Handmade Gold Afghan Turquoise Necklace, 925 Silver, Symbol of Protection, Turkish Jewelry By Sultan

I'm Sultan, a young independent jewelry designer and maker. I design my own models and produce them myself at my atelier, Atelier Sultan, in Bodrum. I use 925 sterling silver in all my designs, and I believe silver is the gold of the future.

For this necklace, I used original genuine Afghan turquoise beads in a multi-strand design. Turquoise has been revered as a protective stone for thousands of years, deeply rooted in Anatolian, Roman, and Central Asian cultures. I drew inspiration from ancient Trojan and Roman bead jewelry, stringing authentic Afghan turquoise with 925 sterling silver and gold bead accents — a statement piece that carries both history and beauty.

I create pieces in 24K gold plating, plain silver, and oxidized/darkened (rustic) silver. I work with stones such as lapis, turquoise, pearl, and coral, as well as antique coin reproductions. I draw inspiration from ancient Roman, Greek, and Anatolian art and museum pieces. All my products are entirely handmade and not mass-produced.

Each piece can be made just for you. Customization options include gemstone selection, plating style, and finish options. I can also create matching pieces and sets upon request. Feel free to message me for a custom order.
