Legend has it that they owe their name to an Ivorian king. The Adinkra symbols convey thoughts, feelings, and ideas. Enhanced with diamonds, these visual proverbs brilliantly revive the wisdom of the Ancients.
Crafted from 18-carat gold and set with carefully selected diamonds and/or precious stones, your AC by AC creation deserves special attention to preserve its brilliance and beauty.
18-carat gold is a precious and noble metal. Although it is durable, it can scratch when in contact with other jewelry or hard surfaces. We recommend that you:
- Store your jewelry in its case, separate from other pieces.
- Avoid repeated impacts and friction.
- Remove your jewelry during sports or manual activities.
Diamonds are among the hardest stones in the world, but they can attract grease and lose their sparkle with daily wear. To preserve their brilliance:
- Avoid contact with perfumes, creams, and cosmetics.
- Gently clean your jewelry using a soft brush, lukewarm water, and mild soap.
- Dry it with a soft, non-abrasive cloth.
Jewelry is meant to be worn, lived with, and passed down.
Taking care of it preserves the emotion it embodies.
Originating from the Akan people of West Africa, particularly Ghana and Côte d'Ivoire, these patterns, rich in depth and meaning, are much more than mere decorations. Each Adinkra symbol has a name and a meaning. Legends tell that King Nana Koffi Adinkra, driven by pride, copied the Golden Stool, a symbol of power, from a neighboring nation. The latter retaliated, and a war broke out. During the conflict, Nana Koffi, wearing a precious cloth decorated with Adinkra symbols, was captured. Impressed by these symbols, the neighboring nation integrated them into its culture, and their use spread. Today, Adinkra symbols continue to inspire. In fashion, art, and design, they demonstrate their relevance and adaptability over the centuries.
When jewelry becomes the messenger of a thought or a feeling, it transforms into an element of language.
