As a Black designer, Jameel Mohammed views his designs for his brand Khiry as a means for reexamining his own history and culture—and considers how they will resonate with larger political issues and struggles. Employing the principles of Afrofuturism—the intersection of African diaspora culture with technology—Mohammed channels these stories and motifs into his sleek, minimal designs, such as these Khartoum Stud Earrings. These sleek hoop-shaped studs have a tapered silhouette in the brand’s signature Khartoum shape. The design is inspired by the cattle herded by Sudan’s Dinka tribe. The horn symbolizes the goals of Khiry: the evaluation of Black life and culture in its own context. Made in New York City from polished sterling silver and gold vermeil, these Khiry Khartoum Stud Earrings measure 0.78 diam. each.
