Designer biography:
Tomas Miskovic has been a jeweler for over 20 years. After a start in fine jewelry, he quickly found his passion for art jewelry, winning several awards for his designs and techniques. With the label "unexpected jewelry", he attempts to break the rules of "ordinary" jewelry and of the expected. Each piece is an experiment in pushing the boundaries of the craft and attempting to re-invent what jewelry can be. At the same time, he wants to stay true to his roots in traditional goldsmithing, using established materials - gold, sterling silver, precious stones – and techniques.
Collection concept:
„Through the darkness“ explores the relationship between hope and despair. The current state of the world has left me feeling the depths of despair with little expectation of a change for the better. So where does hope come from? Perhaps only from our strength, our willingness to fight and our determination to walk through the darkness without letting it engulf us.
The patinated base of the ring represents the darkness we face. In it, I have set red garnets as drops of blood. Out of the darkness, shiny, polished silver flowers, as well as white pearls, are pushing through and coming to the surface - a symbol of hope, rebirth and new beginnings.
