ABOUT AMITA DAMASCENE
Amita Damascene jewellery became highly sought after during the early to mid-20th century, particularly as treasured souvenirs from Japan.
The intricate designs are created by painstakingly inlaying fine strands of gold and silver into a darkened steel surface—a centuries-old decorative technique inspired by traditional Japanese metalworking. Each panel requires exceptional craftsmanship, resulting in jewellery that is both wearable and collectible.
