KHBEIS路 RK Contemporary Jewellery
the
DESIGNER Rose Khbeis
Born in a Palestinian family of jewellers in which diamonds, silver and gold were the essentials; Rose Khbeis managed to transform that legacy by creating contemporary jewellery that merges new techniques with ancestral jewellery design. Therefore, she decided to work with a metal that have been forgotten or underappreciated by the time, bronze. As a result, you can find jewellery that combines artisan techniques with cast bronze and semi precious gemstones applications. Her final bronze with 18k gold plated pieces, truly summarize her vision of ancestral legacy.
