Symbols
A memento of 1453.
The conquest of Istanbul in 1453 is one of the events historians regard as the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the Early Modern Age. The ring takes its name from this and works the symbols of the conquest into silver.
Hagia Sophia
The structure that was converted into a mosque after the conquest of Istanbul and became a symbol of the conquest.
Akshemseddin
A scholar and Sufi who lived in the 15th century, known as the teacher of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror.
This product is a piece of jewelry with spiritual and cultural meaning; it is not a protective object. Symbols are merely a means; only Allah protects and only Allah heals.
Natural stone
Amber.
Amber is an organic precious material formed by the fossilization of tree resin over millions of years; technically, it is not a mineral. It is known for its lightness and a warm texture that quickly heats up in the hand. It has been used in making prayer beads and jewelry in Anatolia for centuries and is traditionally regarded as a symbol of peace and balance.
In natural stones, color tone, veining and pattern differ from piece to piece; these differences are not flaws but signs of the stone's authenticity. An identical pattern to the one in the photo should not be expected.

Care
Your silver, like the first day.
925 sterling silver consists of 92.5% pure silver and alloy metals added for durability. As silver comes into contact with air, moisture and skin, it may oxidize and darken over time; this is a natural process and not a flaw.
01Keep awayRemove it when showering, swimming in the pool or the sea. Do not let it come into contact with perfume, cologne, lotion or detergent.
02CleanIf it darkens, gently clean it with a silver polishing cloth or with lukewarm water and a little soap, then dry thoroughly.
03StoreStore in a dry place in an airtight box or bag. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasives.
Amber is a soft, heat-sensitive material; keep it away from impacts, high heat, perfume, and chemicals, and wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
