Biko is a “vintage meets modern” jewellery brand possessing a natural, time-worn look with a twist of au courant. Designer Corrine Anestopoulos mixes the curious with the contemporary, combining semi-precious stones with raw materials such as brass, and integrating gold, crystal, pearl and lucite into her original, timeless accessories. The result is an irregular beauty that can be small and precious, or bold and freeform.
