Beit Doqo Development Society

The Beit Doqo Development Society started out making food products but quickly grew to include hand carved brass jewelry in order to accommodate the growing number of women participating in this wonderful income-generating project. The jewelry is hand carved from brass plates and typically draws from traditional motifs, like the Palestinian dress, or thob, with the key that symbolizes the Palestinian right of return.

All connector pieces and wires as well as bands are also hand crafted by the talented father and son silversmiths.
