Azza Fahmy Egyptian Jewelry {Luxist}

May 13th 2008 10:16PM Jewelry sold by karat weights and grams of gold is commonly bought by less affluent people in the middle east (and elsewhere I am sure) as a form of savings. Those people simply can not afford fashion. Dismissing them as brutes who do not appreciate her art and creative design is one of the most arrogant and racists things I have ever herd. Even if it did come from a native Egyptian.
