The Zodiac Collection
Our latest jewelry design competition is going to focus on one of the classic designs - the Zodiac collection. The challenge is for you to create a collection that will bring an element of uniqueness to a well-marketed concept with a simplistic and minimalistic mindset.
Following the feedback from our participants in the previous competitions we have decided to create two categories for designers to win:
Judges' Favorite
Awarded to the design that receives the highest points as per the judges' criteria.
Popular vote
Awarded to the design that receives the most votes from the public.
Both the winners will receive:
- A 10% royalty on the net sales of their collection (12 pieces), which will be manufactured and showcased at internationally renowned jewelry shows.
- $200 credit to use in the Veekay store.
- A certificate of recognition for their accomplishment.
- One of our signature universal bracelets as per the color of their choice.
