The book
The Story Behind the Book – Six Characters, Six Collections
This book is a deep exploration of art, identity, and the fluid connection between jewelry and storytelling. Each collection in OTILYAS is not just a set of designs but a reflection of a character, a unique persona that embodies a specific artistic and emotional essence.
At the heart of this concept are six characters, each representing a distinct collection. They are brought to life through jewelry, textures, emotions, and movement, shaping a world where accessories are more than objects—they are expressions of identity. Alongside these characters, the book features twelve original texts, poetic and reflective pieces that add depth to each collection, revealing its inspiration and purpose.

The Twelve Texts – The Literary Soul of the Collections
Interwoven with the collections are twelve original texts, poetic and introspective pieces that explore themes of self-expression, femininity, and artistic evolution. These texts serve as a bridge between the characters and their jewelry, offering a deeper understanding of the inspiration behind each design.
A Journey Beyond Jewelry
This book is more than a showcase of collections—it is an invitation to step into a world where jewelry becomes an extension of one’s soul. The six characters represent different facets of identity, and the twelve texts illuminate the emotions, thoughts, and stories behind each creation.
It is an artistic manifesto, a poetic exploration, and a reflection of how wearable art can transcend aesthetics to become deeply personal and meaningful.
