Jewelry Designer: Nadia Lee of ADIA KIBUR

Once an aspiring diplomat, Nadia Lee discovered her love for jewelry design in her family's native Taiwan, where she noticed a young girl wearing a bracelet made from a tiny metal spring. This creative spark led to the launch of Adia Kibur accessories and allowed Nadia to pioneer a system of jewelry design based on guitar strings. Adia Kibur jewelry provides a sense of timeless luxury: each handmade piece is crafted from unique materials, giving the design unmatched quality and value.
