Karola Torkos

German born Karola Torkos followed an intense training in Germany and worked throughout Europe before coming to London. She is a recent graduate of the Royal College of Art and received awards for her work from Theo Fennell and The Conran Foundation in 2006. She is also a recipient of the Crafts Council Development Award and exhibits her work internationally.

Creating variable / changeable pieces is the major focus of Karola Torkos’ jewellery work. The option of changing the appearance of jewellery offers a facet of interaction or play between wearer and jewellery and transcends beyond simple display on the body. The wearer decides on the look of the piece and explores the countless variations of a necklace or a bracelet.

Giving the wearer the possibility to change the look of a jewellery piece is in some way handing over the last step in the design process. This is a challenge for both the designer and the wearer and it leads to a very personal relationship to design or art.
