Hair Grips Rule The World

in Featured Crafters, Handmade, Jewelry on 19/01/12

PINKO JEWELLERY was born out of sheer personal necessity to turn an everyday object into a piece of jewellery.

 

PINKO comes from Finnish words “pinni” and “koru”, meaning “hair grip” and “jewellery”. Finland hosts the World Design Capital 2012 – Helsinki. I happen to love Helsinki… and design.. and hair grips.

Museums, magazines, art, nature, other peoples' handiwork, the list is endless...
