<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The &#8220;Fruits&#8221; project is part of the &#8220;<a href="http://katerinaglinou.com/nature-jewelry/">Imaginary Nature</a>&#8221; collection. The project is named &#8220;Fruits&#8221; because the items look like small raspberries. Nature is again the inspiration behind these jewelry pieces. Flowers, leaves and fruits. The flowers that turn into fruits with the most exquisite shapes. The shape of these jewelry pieces is inspired by berries because of their beautiful form and the distinctive tiny pips on their skin. All pieces have the maker’s personal touch and imagination.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The &#8220;Fruits&#8221; are made with the granulation technique. Because of their special design those pieces<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BUhjBusgaB1/"> are made individually and every single one is unique</a>. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">All of them come with oxidization in order to make the dots stand out. </span></p>

The designs are basically abstract and minimalistic with a great influence from greek tradition. All the pieces are original designs of Katerina Glinou and handmade by her with </span><span lang="en">persistence and very careful work. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The collection consists of minimalist necklaces, earrings and rings.

Bead A Boo &#8220;Branches&#8221; jewelry is inspired by pieces of driftwood and small twigs found on the beach. Some of the necklaces are hollow with thorns and others long, thin, and curved resembling a rose stem. Each branch necklace is unique because it is <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq9nwb4gSUp/">handmade individually</a> without a mold. Because of this technique all pieces have small differences. The ring is also inspired by the bark of trees. It is oxidized and polished to highlight the organic texture.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The &#8220;Branches&#8221; necklaces are available in sterling silver, oxidized or polished. The charms hang from a chain or a cord to create a different look.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Their dimensions are between 6 to 8 cm depending on the jewelry design.<br />
