Tabayer has a beautiful sense of strength and softness. Founded by Nigora Tokhtabayeva, the collection draws on the symbolism of protective talismans and the fluid forms of modernist sculpture. Sweeping curves and intertwining gold give each piece a presence that feels both powerful and intimate. I love the restraint in these designs - every contour feels considered, allowing the form itself to do the talking. This is jewelry with substance, visually and emotionally, and an unmistakably modern point of view. K.J.
