The Eid Al Etihad Gift Guide

Eight pieces of 18k gold jewellery, handcrafted in the UAE, to give on 2 December.

On 2 December, the Emirates celebrate Eid Al Etihad, the day the union was formed in 1971. Fifty-five years on, it is a day for family, for flags on every balcony, and for gifts that carry a sense of home.

Misk was founded in 2020 by Maher Khansaheb, and every piece is handcrafted in the UAE in 18k gold. The pieces below were chosen with the occasion in mind: designs drawn from the sunrise, the desert, the stones the Gulf has always worn and the palaces of the region.

Drawn from the sunrise: Al Fajr

Al Fajr takes its motif from Shurooq, the moment the sun rises and light gently unfolds. Its radiating lines run through every piece of the collection.

Al Fajr Hanging Earrings

Stud earrings carrying the Shurooq sun-ray motif in 18k gold, accented with diamonds. Small enough to wear every day, and an easy first piece of fine jewellery to give.

Al Fajr Small Hoop Earrings

Hoops set with luminous mother-of-pearl and delicate diamonds, inspired by the first light of dawn. Refined enough for an evening, simple enough for the morning after.

Stones the Gulf has worn for centuries: Heritage and Al Qasr

Agate, malachite, pearl and rose quartz have been worn in the Gulf for centuries. Heritage sets them in 18k rose and yellow gold, each stone cut so its banding follows the curve of its setting, which is why no two pieces are quite alike.

Heritage Small Border Diamond Pendant

A demi-circle worked in an intertwined pattern, framed by a row of hand-set beads and a border of brilliant-cut diamonds, with the stone held at its centre. The small model sits high on the collarbone and suits daily wear. In pearl, agate, malachite or rose quartz.

Al Qasr Mini Pendant

Al Qasr means the palace. Openwork gold built up by hand, with a stone at its centre framed by fine diamonds and lattice detailing, in pearl, agate, amethyst or malachite. Worn alone, or layered with a finer chain.

A circle with no end: Eternity

Eternity takes the circle as its subject, the form with no beginning and no end, and works it in 18k gold with brilliant-cut diamonds and mother-of-pearl. Pieces made to be worn every day and kept for a long time.

Eternity Mother of Pearl Necklace

Mother-of-pearl motifs with subtle diamond accents. It can be worn as a classic necklace or adjusted to sit as a choker, so it suits her whatever her style. In rose, white or yellow gold.

Eternity 1 Line Bangle

A single line of brilliant-cut diamonds tracing the circle in 18k gold. The most restrained piece in the collection: a first fine bangle, and the piece everything else stacks around.

Rings to give

Tilal Small Ring

Tilal draws its line from the dunes of the Arabian desert, the long ridge and the light that shifts across it. Diamonds are set along the crest, like sun on grains of sand. In rose, white or yellow gold.

Eternity Small Mother of Pearl Ring

A small Eternity ring in 18k gold with brilliant-cut diamonds, inspired by the idea of infinity. A quiet gift for a daughter, a sister, or for yourself.
