The Proud Brooch
A part of the Inheritance collection, inspired by petroglyphs carved into mountainsides in the desert.
The story of the Arabian horse is a thousand years old, from poetry, art, to romantic legends, its tales embracing grand historical figures; prophets, pashas, kings, and queens, reaching across diverse civilizations on the five continents.  Its distinctive silhouette is first seen in the art of ancient Egypt more than 3,500 years ago, but it was the nomadic people of the Arabian desert, known as Bedouins who created and refined the pure breed that exists today. The Arabian horse is known as the most beautiful of horses and has been celebrated as such in centuries old literature and art.  
The nobility of spirit is another hallmark of the breed, even the word for “horse” in Arabic means to “walk with pride” indicating a noble bearing has always been an important characteristic of these desert horses.  
Certainly, the beauty and pride of the Arabian horse have attracted the eye of generations of horsemen throughout history and have been an important element contributing to the longevity of the breed.
The design includes 2 horses moving together.
These petroglyphs were created somewhere between 10,000 and 7,500 BC. and are located in Saudi Arabia.
