Idia 18ct gold plated on copper Necklace
Our Idia necklace, named after Queen Idia , mother of Esigie, the Oba of Benin (in present day Nigeria) who ruled from 1504 to 1550, celebrates the richness of the Edo-Benin people and its culture.
This necklace features a pendant which is a figure wearing a gele (which means head-tie or headwrap in Yoruba) synonymous with various African peoples, and a simple woven gold chain.
This necklace is a bestseller and we can see why as it is a tasteful homage to the contemporary love and popularity of headwraps within the African Diaspora around the world. This necklace is ideal for lovers of Afrocentric jewellery. It is timeless staple in any diasporic babe's collection.

Let customers speak for us
This is the 3rd pair of earrings that I've bought. These are beautiful, definitely going to be wearing it a lot and it's not heavy at all. Thank you
I have had my fair share of gold hoops and these trump them all. Fabulous quality and these go with everything and compliment me so much! I just purchased a second pair as well for a friend!
I've purchased these twice, the second time as a gift. They are stunning and such great quality! They have some weight to them and are such a unique hoop!
Exactly what I was looking for not too large, not too small, a perfect classic piece. I love them. Thank you..xx
Absolutely love these earrings, they always get compliments! So beautiful!
Been wearing this necklace almost everyday for the past 2 years and it's still going strong! No fade, no break in chain or clasp. My absolute fave!!
I was very much impressed with this necklace 😍. I purchase this one and the Jamaica necklace, I just wish they had made the Jamaica necklace cute like this piece. Yes, I love this necklace!
I have to stop myself from trying to pick these every single time, simply stunning earrings! Lovely quality and sure to get compliments each time I wear them.
This item arrived in less than a week after order and did not disappoint. Exceptional quality and presentation. Not at all heavy and just the right size. Very happy with my purchase
I love this shop so much and keep an eye on it for future purchases. I have shopped here a couple of times and both times I’ve been really pleased with the quality of the products and style of them as well. Really trendy, beautiful jewellery that has a really high quality finish, doesn’t tarnish and is easy to clean. I hope to make purchases from here again in the future. Thank you Omolola!x
Lovely earrings, very classy and elegant for a night out or even every day use. Not heavy at all for the size. Would recommend.
I purchased the Faat Kine earrings for myself, but I realized that it would be the perfect gift for my sister this Christmas. I think the earrings complement her style well. The intricate design and quality are so great. And the weight of the earrings also shows the quality of the earrings. If you are a fan of hoop earrings, you should get them.
Lovely piece, I'm a fan of small pendants, nice for everyday.
