When everything is available, and broken things are no longer repaired but replaced, what is old takes on value, and minor imperfections turn into an asset. Every scratch or dent has a story and symbolizes the moment when people created it. Those people are often no longer here, but the remaining objects take on some of the energy of their former users. They acquire character as they pass through generations. They become one of a kind, just like their stories. Appreciating the beauty of seemingly unnecessary objects, we made them the centerpiece of the Vintage collection. We used parts of pre-war watches, fragments of hardware and brass handicrafts and set them in contemporary, minimalist forms. In a world that is constantly rushing and future-oriented, Vintage jewelry is an artifact that brings down to earth and reminds us of what is left.
Vintage


Drawers can hide real treasures. Small items that once had a fascinating life, over time have lost their original glory and rest in the nooks and crannies of basements and attics. However, they should not end up there for long, as they can be a source of beautiful memories. But not only that! Old adventure companions are also a source of unique inspiration. In the Vintage collection, we decided to bring out the stories hidden at the bottom of the closets and capture them in artistic jewelry. The protagonists of the collection are pre-war watch parts, old coins, fragments of hardware and other objects of everyday use, which delighted us with their form, structure or original details.
We marvel at how objects acquire unique characteristics over the years. As they remain in use, they express the relationship between them and their owner. Like a mirror, they reflect style and character, and tell more than one story without words. Vintage jewelry gives a new context to precious keepsakes, bringing them from the past directly into the present. It symbolically connects the past with the present. The jewelry time machine ensures that nothing significant or meaningful is forgotten.
Jewelry with watch parts
In the Vintage collection you will find necklaces, earrings and bracelets decorated with pendants with old watch parts. Every smallest detail of the intricate compositions is perfectly visible, thanks to transparent jewelry resin. The pendants are unique, each has an individual arrangement of screws, springs and dials. This variety is a jewelry metaphor for a personal approach to time. Watches no longer count down seconds and minutes, but their presence discreetly draws our attention to the passage of time. They can remind us that it is not worth waiting to follow our dreams.
The cufflinks from the Vintage collection are also decorated with watch parts. This unique accessory styled with an elegant shirt looks original and fashionable. They will match any watch, and when combined with a smartwatch, they will show the contrast between old and latest methods of measuring time.
Jewelry with old coins
The first coins were created about 2,500 years ago. Over time, their shape and material changed: from bronze and copper, to silver and gold. The original artifacts, which in the past were attributes of wealth, in the Vintage collection became talismans bringing metaphorical wealth and good fortune. And although in the age of plastic cards and online banking the coin has no economic power, its symbolism and beauty continue to delight. Ducats hide the memory of golden times, and when worn as jewelry, they help preserve them for a long time.
Long necklaces, impressive bracelets and magnificent necklaces in the ORSKA workshop were decorated with coins from different countries and times. As a result, each piece of jewelry has an element of surprise. Surprise is therefore included in your orders.
Jewelry with chess king and queen
Chess is a unique game. It combines athletic competition with intellectual adventure and good entertainment and requires strategic skills. Before the era of computers and mobile phones, which now completely absorb our attention, it was an integral part of leisure time. Our grandparents and their parents enjoyed playing chess. It was they who enthusiastically passed on the secrets of this game to the next generations. We transferred the sentiment of moments spent together to the jewelry workshop. Necklaces with the chess king and queen from the Vintage collection bring back memories of shared games. Made in silver and brass, the pieces, borrowed from the black and white chessboard, are a symbol of passion and perseverance, as well as interpersonal relationships.
Necklace with king and queen
There is no single symbol that can express love. This complex, multi-layered feeling requires the creation of its own metaphors. Following this lead, we searched for a motif that would accurately reflect the complexity of human relationships. The chess king and queen found their way into the ORSKA workshop not by accident. Winning the game requires sophisticated tactics that take into account many nuances. The fate of the royal couple can turn out in different ways. Exactly as in life. The necklace decorated with a chess pendant will be a perfect gift for a loved one. Without words, it will express the wish that the shared game will never end.
