"ABAD" beneficiary: Jahid Javadov | Region: Baku | Goldsmithing
Jahid Javadov is one of the young artisans engaged in ABAD.
Despite his very young age, he has many accomplishments:
Jahid graduated from Azerbaijan State Academy of Arts and he is a member of the Union of Painters.
Being the first craftsman in the family he remarks that the interest in arts aroused when he was studying at 6th grade at school:
“I was crazy about painting, it was my hobby to look at each single detail of my mom’s jewellery. Thus, when I was about to graduate from school, I knew that I will end up as a jeweller.”
Jahid is a specialist on artistic metal. He has a distinctive style and technics in jewellery making.
When I was studying at the Academy, it was one of the biggest dreams of mine to gather my friends who are engaged in the decorative-applied folk art around me and open a creative centre. My dream came true. I am a founder of “Chaharshah” creative centre in Icherisheher, Old Town.
“It goes without saying that ABAD supports us to organize our sales. By means of ABAD, we have gained a much broader customer audience. The amount originated from our sales are transferred to our bank account once in a month.”
Speaking about his future plans, Jahid says that he plans to study Masters in Germany.
ABAD ensures me that my employee will be assisted for the organization of sales even if I am not in the country.
