ABOUT CADAR

The eponymous fine jewelry brand designed by Michal Kadar pays homage to the architecture of the body by capturing light and fluidly expressing movement. Each curve and angle is a thoughtful study of the intimate connection between gold and skin. A delicate arc that drapes fluidly around the neck or wrist, and the embrace of a necklace or ring that moves in perfect harmony with a gesture, influence the wearer's relationship to the jewelry. Bold minimalism, elemental beauty, proportion and balance are core principles of Kadar's design ethos, which is based on purity of form.
