Höstrusk

Ute blåser det kuling och havet var mörkt och tungt imorse. Vad passar bättre än att kura inne i go stickad tröja, halsduk och våra fina blänkande silver pebbles som speglar alla tända ljus.

Dagens fångst


Som gråblå dyning bohusbergen rullar...
Annas halsband med marina berlocker, som hämtat ur det salta havet.
Kan kombineras i det oändliga.

Gemstone presentation: Rose quartz

Rose quartz is one of the most desirable varieties of quartz. The pink to rose red color is completely unique, unlike any other pink mineral species. The color is caused by iron and titanium impurities.
Rose quartz is used as an ornamental stone and as a gemstone. It is also an alternate birthstone for the month of January.
Although rose quartz is usually too cloudy to be used as a cut gemstone, a few exceptional pieces are found with enough clarity and color to make fine gems.
Rose quartz is also a very attractive ornamental stone and is carved into a variety of shapes such as spheres, figurines and ornate statues.
Rose quartz is found in Madagascar, India, Germany, and several localities in the USA. Nowadays, most of the worlds supply of good quality rose quartz comes from Brazil.


In our webshop you may find this crystal cut piece of rose quartz: Crystal Queen Rosequartz

Holiday with the girls!

Holiday, celebrate!

If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be, it would be so nice

Everybody spread the word
We're gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation
It's time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to come together
To release the pressure
We need a holiday

Anna on a holiday with the girls: Jennifer, Anna and Ing-Marie.

Mixing and matching the Koki creations

This is one example of how you can mix the different pieces in our collection to create your own style.

All our charms and pendants are fitted with a sterling silver lobster clasp which gives you the possibility to attach them on any necklace and bracelet of your choice. In short; freedom to create your own style.

And the colour of the year 2010 is...

Turquoise!
Pantone and the global authority on color (yes, there actually is such an organization!), today announced PANTONE® 15-5519 Turquoise, an inviting, luminous hue, as the color of the year for 2010.




“In many cultures, Turquoise occupies a very special position in the world of color,” explains Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®. “It is believed to be a protective talisman, a color of deep compassion and healing, and a color of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky. Through years of color word-association studies, we also find that Turquoise represents an escape to many – taking them to a tropical paradise that is pleasant and inviting, even if only a fantasy.”

Turquoise adds a splash of excitement to neutrals and browns, complements reds and pinks, creates a classic maritime look with deep blues, livens up all other greens, and is especially trend-setting with yellow-greens.

Be sure to watch out for turquoise coloured pieces in our new spring/summer collection!
Here is a small foretaste...

Visiting our silver supplier in Antalya - smells like spring!

Maria is currently in Antalya to visit our sterling silver supplier. Always a pleasure to see all the wonderful silver material.
We like to start creating, in our minds, even before we have gotten our hands on the new material. It makes the design process more free and fun.
At the moment we have a comfortable 17 C here, feels like early spring. A perfect environment for the creation of our spring collection.
