Oytun Camcigil

Originally from Istanbul, Oytun lived throughout the Middle East for some 35 years. Ever since her student years, Oytun has been collecting beads, coins and antique silver pieces from different eras. Drawing on the collection, she began to create different combinations of necklaces. The richness of Bedouin jewellery made a great impression on her and inspired her to create many new designs, ever combining old and new silver pieces. Soon she was crafting new original pieces of jewellery, inspired by tradition, but with a distinctive contemporary look and feel. She is a graduate of Istanbul Technical University with a masters in architecture. Oytun can be contracted at oytun@eastern-treasures.com. Her instagram account is @oytun_eastern_treasures.
