Unique to bakana is the intricacy featured in the crochet-style jewelry collection which highlights a technique of precious and non-precious wire interlaced with semi-precious stones and beads. Bakana’s Karina necklace in rich wine complimented with sky-blue and golden tones is a perfect professional-to-casual design. The lush cool tones of the Isabela necklace match spring and summer color trends beautifully. The versatility of the deep earth shades featured in the Mirella necklace and matching bracelet enable this design to span the seasons. The Bebel bracelet is a splash of color, a burst of fun—it’s carnival! The Czech-crystal Carmen ring is made of beautiful iridescent cherry-colored beads.
