From Bali with love – a new edition of the Kembali collection

The new line of the Kembali collection is a return to the paradise island in search of nature – this time human nature. Instead of a wealth of flowers and snake motifs, it is dominated by symbols of the body: eyes and lips. In necklaces, earrings, and pins from this line, these motifs express the connection between the craftsman and the material; what is seen and what is unnoticed; what is spoken and what is unspoken. The collection encourages looking deeper into oneself and the world, reminding us of beauty perceived not only with the eyes but also with the heart. In a world full of noise and words that fade away too easily, jewelry from Bali emphasizes that what is most important doesn’t have to be loud. We send it to you like a love letter: from the island to the world, from a Balinese craftsman to the person who chooses to wear it. A unique letter, not written on paper, but carved in wood and mother-of-pearl.

Eye - catching jewelry - necklace with carved wooden lips and geometric eye

The centerpiece of this long necklace is a pendant with carved lips, crafted in a friendly Balinese workshop from sawo wood. This wood, also known as Manilkara Kauki, has been used for centuries in traditional crafts in South America and Asia. It is prized for its exceptional durability, moisture resistance, and almost reddish hue that evokes the warmth of the earth and the calm of the forest. The miniature sculpture is set in a round pendant made of gold-plated brass, topped with a geometric eye attached in the ORSKA workshop. The combination of a realistic sculpture with a minimalist metal form creates an original composition. The pendant hangs on a long chain finished with an extender. The necklace length is adjustable, allowing it to be styled in various ways.

How to style long necklaces?

Long, statement necklaces look best paired with simple, solid designs: a smooth dress, a classic shirt, or a black turtleneck. Let them take center stage – they don’t need competition. For an eye-catching evening look, add a thin rigid bracelet from the Body collection and a classic clutch. Thanks to the use of natural materials like the reddish-brown sawo wood, the Kembali necklace also fits beautifully with vintage and boho aesthetics. You can also pair it with retro styles, such as an embroidered blouse with puffed sleeves or a flared midi dress.
