The Bite Magazine - Autumn/Winter 2023 - Issue 34

bitejewellery T raditionally, Qudo is a Japanese system of weav- ing jewellery that started 200 years ago and spread worldwide. Its technique consists of many disciplines and ancient ideas passed down through the centuries from father to son. It’s said to bring wealth and good luck to the person wearing the jewellery and accesso- ries. The stones used in Qudo jewellery include amethyst, coral, citrine, garnet, lemon quartz, and rose quartz. The latter is the most popular due to its beautiful shades of pink and red. According to German jewellery brand Qudo, based in Hano- ver, its namesake is more than jewellery; it expresses a person’s personality. The brand, founded in 2009, has a philosophy to inspire and excite jewellery lovers with clever and innovative ideas using the latest technologies and best elements. It offers all the beauty and elegance of fine, must-have jewellery without the massive cost of solid precious metals, making it far more collectable and everyday friendly. Qudo Interchangeable is a stylish and highly collectable range that taps into the global trend for personalised jewellery. It combines ingenious designs and expert German craftsmanship with a kaleidoscope of colourful gem tops, including European crystals. The wearer can easily interchange gem tops for a fun, personalised swapping and combining colours and styles across rings, bangles, bracelets, necklaces and earrings in gold, silver or rose gold. Within this collection, you’ll find the stainless steel Ceccano Deluxe Bracelet with a toggle clasp and matching crystal-set ring. Its integrated element holder can be combined with all facets of the collection. Another piece is the Cassine Basic Ban- gle with the ring element set with crystals. Fanano Bracelet is the perfect basis for your charms with a separate primary or deluxe charm holder where collectors can wear their favourite charm on a bracelet or necklace. Bocconi Flat Ear Studs have a narrow rope detailing rim with a sparkling crystal, while the stainless steel Tondo Deluxe Stud Earrings feature a crystal-set rim with a sparkling crystal.
