In Teresa’s words, Rites of Passage is born as true works of art do, from the deepest of consciousness and consciousness, from initial thoughts that expand in her mind, generating different lines and figures to take the form of jewelry pieces.
The choice of the name of the brand was certainly not casual; the rites of passage have a special meaning. “Throughout our lives there are significant moments, important moments that mark a before and an after”, and it is the product of this introspective analysis that Teresa begins to develop her creations.
She defines herself as an undeniably artistic person, with the need to practice a poetic life, free and in constant search of improvement and knowledge.
In Teresa´s words Rites of Passage was born as the real works of art do, from the depths of consciousness and initial thoughts that expand in your mind, generating different lines to take the shape of pieces of jewelry.
“I do not conceive a jewel as a simple element that beautifies and adorns, or an artifice of ostentation that makes us feel more secure, but as a piece that accentuates and reflects the best of the personality or allows us to declare a unique intentionality when we give it to someone special”.
The perception of art for Teresa Escudero goes beyond an aesthetic purpose; and it is exactly what she transmits with her collection, where she recreates reality, generating emotions, energy and beauty.
Timeless jewelry
And although fashion and art have always gone hand in hand, the word trend is not her favorite. Her creative activity is based on a process of understanding everything she wants to reflect and then translating it through matter into a creation that is “made to last.” The pieces of Rites Of Passages are always current, they are outside the weather. Pieces without age over the years, which will also become more valuable because they escape a pattern of concrete behavior in a particular environment for a period
“The magic and commitment to make a jewel requires that time does not pass through it. That is why the essence and objective of each piece is not found in creating something fleeting. It is about transcending, innovating, creating an ownstyle and transmitting certain knowledge and universal consciousness “. And, like the universe and nature, timeless and eternal. “
Each one of the creations of this collection has been carried out with the purpose of transmitting a different sensation, a unique idea. And it achieves it making use of a simple, delicate and sophisticated style.
