DESIGN NAME: Z R
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Collection
INSPIRATION: The real, authentic, vintage key is our iconic symbol. The door that key used to open is probably long gone but it remains as an artefact of this collection well protected under the comfort of the soft black leather and is assigned a new role. Does it symbolise wisdom and the power to lock and unlock new doors and new worlds? Does it keep secrets of ambiguity? Much of what exists under it often remains concealed, unnoticed, somehow hidden, and yet with its own significance and purpose.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Hidden Collection is made by hand out of high quality black Italian leather. Each item is unique, what unifies them is the bona fide vintage key inside. The focus of the collection is adaptability and multifunctionality, they can be worn in different ways thus totally changing the perception. These items are versatile not only in terms of function, most of them are also unisex. The integrity of the form and leather was to be preserved intact so all the locks remain hidden inside magnets.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: -
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The idea of the collection was born in 2015 in Sofia and was presented in Tranoi and Premiere Classe trade fashion shows in June and September 2017 during the Paris Fashion Weeks

She has graduated with a MFA in painting in 2007 and received a Master’s degree in graphic design and communication in 2009, both from the Academy of Fine Arts “Santa Giulia“ in Brescia, Italy, where she lived and work till 2010. With many national and international exhibitions, now she blends in beautiful alchemy painting and graphic design, to create artistic handmade leather jewelry. The first “Magnetique” collection, was shown in 2013 in SABAI Gallery in Sofia, Bulgaria. In 2014 the showroom Zora Romanska opens doors.

The brand emphases on individuality and smart multi-functional design in the old time favorite and stylish black color. The idea of the HIDDEN COLLECTION is focused on the act of observation, on perception and on the integrity that each and every single handmade leather jewelry can present. The most emblematic for ZORA ROMANSKA – the real old KEY stays well covered under the comfort of the high quality Italian leather, and it is there to symbolize wisdom and the power to lock and unlock new doors and worlds. Much of what exists under it often remains concealed, unnoticed, somehow HIDDEN, but with its own significance and purpose. Uniqueness is beyond the visible and the obvious in this world. You have to dare to look for it.
