Priscilla Ku, a GIA jewelry appraiser and designer, has been enthusiastic on the jewelry
design for many years. She has designed an extraordinary
phase on her artworks that accessory can be divided and assembled to feature with different
apparels which enhances the utility and
freshness of the jewelry. Ku has worked with a
Hong Kong tourbillon brand: Memorigin for creating her own brand <KuTour> which was launched recently. Two separate tourbillon series, Typhoon and Tweed, are launched under
the timeless effort of Memorigin and Ku.
Just like the pattern of the fabric, the circular outlook with rectangular inner design implies the concept of Chinese proverbs “following the rule and act wisely”. Through the learning of time, a very positive value can be achieved. In horology, tourbillon watch is one of the most complicated technologies in timepieces industry. KuTour merges the modern beauty of ladies with sophisticated machinery perfectly.
<Tweed>, the design inspiration comes from the checked woolen cloth pattern with a simple colour tone. In order to form the interweave effect of the woolen cloth perfectly, different kind of gems were assembled like the black gems, sapphire, diamonds and grey diamonds. Thus, the jewelry workers spent unlimited working hours on the cutting process to imitate the sophisticated pattern of the woolen cloth. Apart from the special design on the appearance, a deep inspiration about life is implied. She aims to express the true meaning of harmony.
<Typhoon> is a tourbillon watch based on the satellite image of a typhoon passing through China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. On the dial, the curve lines represent the isobars of the satellite image. With diamonds in different colours encircled, they form the continental and ocean alike. In the middle, it is the location of Hong Kong. The typhoon is transformed into rotating tourbillon. Besides, the harmony among China, Hong Kong and Taiwan is the extraordinary blessing from the watch design. By using different diamonds with different colours, the details and shining gems enriched everyone’s eyesight. If you wear it in a grand occasion, you must be grabbing all the attention from everyone. Even wearing in the casual apparel, senses of fashion and elegance will be expressed.
