About us

Black Odalisk creates Art-inspired jewelry for the walking masterpiece, by designing statement ear-pieces. Every collection is inspired by, and dedicated to, an artist of choice.
In the world of Art, the term “Odalisque” refers to the reclining nude, a sensual woman lying seductively on her side in a painting or sculpture. An “Odalisque” is hence an embodiment of the unchanging and eternal feminine ideal.
The Black Odalisk woman lives and breathes her truth. She marches to the beat of her own drum and isn't afraid to stand out. She has cultivated a strong sense of identity and style. She has an undeniable eye for beauty. She is sober with a touch of madness, simple yet sophisticated, gentle yet bold. She is a complex work of Art - a walking masterpiece.
"I wanted to dream of a world where artists became muses and women became the Art." - NT
ABOUT THE DESIGNER
Lebanese-born interior architect turned jewelry designer, Nour Tohme, launched her brand Black Odalisk, in late 2018 after quitting the nine-to-five matrix, with a longing to pursue her true passions: Art and Jewelry. She believes authenticity is the fundamental pillar of beauty, but her aim goes beyond a belief; she wants to transcend the concept of mass-produced fashions and fast-changing trends.
Malraux once said that Art is a rendez-vous with eternity; the only place on earth that escapes death and transcends time is a Museum. Through its inspired designs, Black Odalisk injects a small piece of the art world, a breath of eternity, into daily life. To every woman wearing our pieces, may you feel limitless, empowered and eternal. May you escape death at every moment, and laugh.
