    The foundation
    Dina Soliman, is an Egyptian jewelry designer who discovered her passion at an early age, back in high school, just by playing with some random beads, a couple of hours later I crafted my first bracelet.

    It was that small flame that ignited my heart and decided to nurture it by self-learning jewelry making, there were no schools back then where I could learn to work on metal and translate my designs into real-life pieces, so I continued beading and stringing my way through college years and 2 office jobs later.
    in 2010 I moved to Dubai where I worked as a flight attendant, traveling the globe & subconsciously picturing my future masterpieces.
    In 2015 I flew back to my hometown, Cairo, when I discovered that Egypt finally had its 1st jewelry design education facility established, and there I studied professional jewelry making and later joined their teaching staff.
    I further expanded on my knowledge in jewelry design & crafting, building my own workshop, and proudly designed and produced special many costume jewelry pieces for the most important TV and media projects in Egypt, including but not limited to:

    - تراب الماس ( Movie 2018)
    - اهو ده اللي صار (TV Series 2019)
    - الفيل الازرق 2 (Movie 2019)
    - افتتاح طريق الكباش (Luxor 2021)
    - كيرة والجن ( Movie 2022)
    - Stefano Ricci 50th anniversary fashion show (Luxor 2022)
    & many more, highly viewed, commercials & media projects.

    The Brand DNA Jewellery (The Brand) is a self-made outcome of that childhood passion and my inner voice.
    The DNA company was officially incorporated in 2019.
    We work primarily in precious metals and I currently work from my studio in Maadi, Cairo.



    The inspiration
    I like to translate my feelings, thoughts, and movements into metal, combining colors from the cultures I’ve visited, nature I’ve admired, and history that touched me.

    My signature piece is the “Samia Gamal” earrings also known as “the pencil Shavings” inspired by Samia’s skirts while dancing, each single earring has its distinctive form and flow, no molds are used while producing the pieces giving a timeless and unique outcome every single time, giving the pieces their DNA.
