JEWELRY THAT ENCAPSULATES A PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE.
ALL WE HAVE IS NOW.
HANDCRAFTED USING TRADITIONAL TECHNIQUES.
In Māori, “KORU” symbolizes new life, spiritual growth, regeneration and
progress. Every piece of jewelry is also a piece of wisdom, it encapsulates a
philosophy of life. The deeper purpose of the piece you're wearing is to remind
you a simple, yet vital truth in life: All we have is now.
Passionate about art & design, Bianca Badescu found a way to express her
creativity by painting and playing with jewelry in her free time. After a near to
death experience and coming back from a coma, her past years were about
rebuilding herself and her life. She started attending Assamblage, The Institute
of Art & Design in order to study different techniques used in creating
contemporary jewelry. She fell in love with designing and handcrafting jewelry,
fulfilling her desire of having absolute freedom to manifest her creativity. That’s
how KORU Concept was born.
One day I was hit by a car that almost killed me and my whole life changed out of
the blue, in an instant. It was a long way to my recovery, filled with suffering, small
and big fights with pain and disabilities, questions about the meaning of life,
introspection, and revelations. Making jewelry became a part of my healing
process, a way of embracing a new perspective on life and finding a purpose,
accepting and celebrating the passing of time, changes and experiences that
come with this and the marks it leaves behind.
