Bil Arabi Expands Hobb and Oula Collections

Bil Arabi has expanded its Hobb and Oula collections with new designs that continue to explore themes of identity and emotion through modern Arab craftsmanship. Founded by Nadine Kanso, the jewellery brand is known for blending Arabic calligraphy with contemporary design, and this latest update pushes both collections into bolder territory.

The Hobb collection, named after the Arabic word for love, sees the launch of its first high-jewellery set. Featuring diamond-encrusted pieces that balance heritage with sophistication, the collection turns emotional expression into something tangible—designed not just to wear, but to carry through generations. The calligraphic forms are refined yet distinctive, aiming to evoke meaning beyond aesthetics.

Oula, the brand’s original collection, also returns in a new light. The latest pieces revisit the identity-driven spirit of Bil Arabi’s beginnings, now interpreted through cleaner lines and more architectural silhouettes. Arabic initials take centre stage, reimagined in baguette diamond settings that are made to layer and stack. The result is a modern yet timeless update, offering everyday pieces with symbolic weight.

This expansion stays true to Bil Arabi’s founding philosophy—jewellery that speaks to personal history, emotion, and Arab heritage, while remaining relevant to a contemporary audience.
