As I looked through the 'Into the Fold' jewelry collection, images of Greek goddesses and traditional Geishas flooded my mind. The first was due to the styling of the campaign images and the latter based solely on the stunning designs of the accessories themselves.
Inspired by the time-tested paper art form of origami, the 'Into the Fold' jewelry collection is elegant, whimsical and beautiful to behold. With a focus on pleats and fan-like folds, the collection also includes some tassels thrown into the mix to soften up the sharp edges of the pieces.
I especially like how designer Gala Curios used a variety of materials for the 'Into the Fold' jewelry collection. These include leather, metal, 24 carat gold and nickel silver.
