Inspired by the story of King Solomon Hoopoe, this subtle set was made to look as a Hoopoe bird signifying wisdom, sacredness, and protectiveness.

​

Hoopoes (Hud-Hud in Arabic) are colorful birds that are found across Afro-Eurasia, notable fortheir unique “crown” of feathers. Mentioned in various religious books, Prophet Solomon was a king whose armies consisted of troops made of men and birds. He was blessed with the unique ability of being able to talk to animals and birds for hunting, communicating important messages, and other suitable services.

​

Signifying freedom, one of the Hoopoes’ is designed as though it’s flying mid-air, whilst the other is designed as though it is resting over a tree branch. Hoopoes are also characterized with black and white feathers, the designer decided to use black enamel and black diamond to embody this unique feature.

​
