'Blat Beirut’ translates to English as ‘Tiles of Beirut’ and mimics the gorgeous designs on tiles that grace period homes found in the city.  "During winter days and when the rain and cold forced us to stay indoors, my sisters and I played hopscotch hopping on our toes to get across the tiles. The designs on those tiles are forever engraved in my memory and now I’ve imprinted them on rings.”
