I’ve fallen in love with Karakola jewellery in January this year and my only complaint ever since has been that I cannot yet afford it. I came across her Garland necklace by chance and instantly desired it; I can’t remember the last time I laid eyes on a piece of jewellery so simple, yet so striking. I imagined wearing it as a necklace, in more ways than one, and as bracelet, too–perhaps every day.

The designer behind this brilliant invention is Karola Torkos, a woman decided togive noble metals unique and versatile forms. Only recently has shetapped into adding beads to her creations and I find it an inspiring endeavour once again: here’s my favourite necklace from her show at Coutts London Jewellery Week (June 2008, first ever), gold clouds and moonstone beads:

Just like the garland, these gold clouds will change shape whenever you wish, as if you had a brand new necklace each time.  Why not turn them into flowers? One day my budget will finally befriend Karakola and I’ll know I invested in a piece that will startle and enchant my admirers for a lifetime.

Prices vary and Karola suggests you contact her for a quote; I guess, more so for the very young moonstone necklace. There are a few indicative prices on Object Fetish, though.”
