Another young hip Jewellery designer, Daria de Koning hailing from America, where she was born and raised in the United States, graduated the gemological institute of America, and after a couple of years working for a designer, struck out on her own, starting her self titled brand, which has become famous for its quirky unique red label products, and its bespoke white label, which at the permission of the original designers become part of that permanent collection.
One collection within the Red Label which displays De Koning's attention to detail, unquestioned luxury pedigree and totally unique approach to jewellery design, is the shell collection. Each piece in this collection is solid yellow gold, and has set in its centre a genuine, tiny shell. In fact, since each shell is natural, and therefore completely unique, every single piece is different, and to purchase one of these items, is to almost commission a bespoke item of jewellery, as before buying you must enquire as to the types of shells available, or if you have a particular type in mind, specify it.
The images below show the selection of items available in the shell collection, and display two shell variations for each item, also detailed is price, but more importantly, we see the unique vision of this creative young New York based jewellery designer. Visit www.dariadekoning.com to see more.
