Forget everything you thought you knew about silver – this ancient art form is turning it on its head.


Most of us have grown up believing sterling silver (925) is the pinnacle — shiny, strong, and wearable. But what if there was something purer, rarer, and infinitely more extraordinary?


Enter Kazaz, a 5000-year-old technique that uses 1000K pure silver, the most luminous form of the metal on Earth.


Instead of being stamped or cast, Kazaz pieces are handwoven — literally spun into existence — by artisans who turn molten silver into threads as fine as a single strand of hair. The result? Jewellery that feels impossibly light, supple, and alive with history.


A RARE CRAFT


Only a handful of master Turkish artisans still know how to create Kazaz jewellery. Each bracelet, ring, and necklace in Zehrai’s Kazaz Collection is a collaboration between modern design and ancient skill — a living connection between past and present.


Every piece takes days to complete and reflects a level of precision that borders on meditative. It’s not just jewellery; it’s wearable history, crafted with patience, passion, and devotion.


SYMBOLS THAT SPEAK


Look closely and you’ll find meaning in every twist and turn. The Reef Knot (🪢), one of the Kazaz collection’s signature motifs, symbolises an unbreakable bond — a nod to eternal connection. Many believe it inspired the infinity symbol (♾️) we know today.


Wearing Kazaz isn’t just about adornment. It’s about carrying a story — one that began in 2800 BC and continues to shine, thread by thread, in the hands of modern creators.


SILVER’S SECOND ACT


Zehrai’s take on Kazaz is where heritage meets innovation. The label honours an ancient tradition while designing pieces that feel fresh, wearable, and relevant for today.


It’s luxury with soul — craftsmanship that refuses to be forgotten.


So, the next time someone mentions sterling silver, you’ll know there’s something even more luminous waiting to be discovered.
