Something luscious for your perfect look
This season’s novelty from Veronika Kostková’s studio is an author’s jewelry collection. Handmade earrings and necklaces were created in collaboration with her sister Anna Mária with the idea of providing brides with comprehensive styling. It is decent and original jewelry that is the right “point” to the overall outfit. You can read how the idea of offering jewelry in addition to wedding dresses and other accessories was born in the interview with Veronika below.
1. How did the idea of making jewelry in your studio come about?
I try to provide brides with complex styling for their dresses – to match them with a veil, shoes, or something on top, and naturally I missed jewelry. In the studio, I also offer jewelry from other designers, but the bride does not always like the design of a more expressive piece of jewelry. That’s why I decided to design my own designs.
2. Tell us something more about the jewelry itself – what types can we find in your collection?
The components are made of brass, which is gilded with 14K gold or rhodium, the stones are semi-precious stones, river and artificial pearls, zircons. The jewelry is very small, but nevertheless the individual components have detailed and precise work. I buy the components from a supplier in Seoul.
3. Introduce us to your sister – what does she do, how did you work together and do you share the same tastes?
My sister is a very precise detailer, that’s why I approached her about making jewelry. We have similar tastes, although our focus is different. The sister is a “winemaker” with a degree in biotechnology and also works in a wine laboratory. In addition, she makes jewelry to relax.
4. Will you make other pieces besides earrings?
In addition to the gold-plated pieces, there will be several silver variants and a few pieces in the color of rose gold. And also a very colorful and cheerful summer mini-collection for all women, not only brides.
5. How do the names of jewelry come about? Where do you get your inspiration from?
Jewelry, just like clothes, are mostly named after women’s names, or names derived from specific stones – for example, Luna earrings are named after the moonstone that adorns them.
6. Which is your favorite gold – white, yellow or rose?
Yellow.
7. Do you believe in the “power” of semi-precious stones and the meaning they carry?
I believe that human thought has great power and it is up to us whether we press it into a stone, a glass of water or just let it flow freely.
