Characterised by bold, masculine design and with a unique sense of creativity, Donocik's themes come from literature and architecture, also inspired by the Art Deco movement, 80s fashion, retro-futurism and Abstract expressionist artist Frank Stella.

Donocik gives jewellery a new definition and challenges the notion of self-adornment, which has attracted great attention from around the world.
