About Peripeteia Jewelry
Peripeteia Jewelry, established in 2023 by Oakville-based entrepreneurs Zuhal and Mehmet Oner, embodies a narrative of Anatolian artisanship and cultural heritage, celebrating handcrafted accessories' exquisite and eye-brightening artistry.
The roots of Peripeteia extend back a generation. Mehmet's mother, Kadriye Oner, a revered local tailor in Edremit, Turkey, has long been renowned for her artisanal prowess. Since the 1970s, Kadriye has diligently operated her local business, meticulously crafting handmade products such as needle lace, knitting, and crocheting. Her dedication has earned her admiration in the region, where she is celebrated not only as an artisan but also as a successful female entrepreneur.
With Kadriye's inspiration and guidance, the couple launched their own line of needle lace in the Canadian market. Driven by their heritage and a deep passion for craftsmanship, they embarked on expanding their business, marking a new era for Peripeteia Jewelry in 2023.
Today, Peripeteia Jewelry offers a diverse collection reflecting unique handmade examples of Turkish heritage. Alongside their signature needle lace creations, the brand offers a range of leather bracelets and fabric bags crafted by talented suppliers in the region.
