Over 50 years ago, Azza Fahmy initiated her journey towards being one of the most esteemed jewellery designers in the MEA region. With a profound purpose, Azza Fahmy has taken the role of translating the region’s culture and international art and historic references to the world, through contemporary jewellery design that reects her unique research approach and craftsmanship preservation. The notion of Azza Fahmy as a brand takes place at the 1969 Egyptian Book Fair, while stumbling upon a German art book about the classical jewellery of Medieval Europe. Upon viewing, she is instantly struck with inspiration and passion, thus beginning the successful journey that is Azza Fahmy Jewellery. Continuing in her day job, she became an apprentice in Khan El Khalili, Egypt’s ancient jewellery quarter where she spent her evenings learning with one of the craft’s most respected masters – the rst woman to achieve this. This was followed in the mid-1970s by a scholarship from the British Council where she completed her jewellery craft education at the City of London Polytechnic.

Amina Ghali, the youngest daughter of Azza Fahmy, inherited her mother's passion for jewellery design from a tender age, spending countless hours in her mother's workshop. With an innate talent and a drive to innovate, Amina ventured on a remarkable educational journey in jewellery, first at Italy’s prestigious Alchimia School, and later obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree in jewelry design and silversmithing from the University of Central England, Birmingham, UK.

Today, Amina stands as a visionary force within the industry, leading the charge in shaping the brand's creative direction. Drawing inspiration from contemporary trends and melding them with timeless heritage, she infuses each collection with a fresh, youthful perspective. Amina's keen eye for detail and her adeptness in blending modern techniques with traditional craftsmanship have earned her recognition as a trailblazer in the world of jewellery design.
