PINOCOCO AT SANDUGO TRADE EXPO 2011

Pinococo is now at the Sandugo Trade Expo 2011 in Tagbilaran, Bohol up to July 24.


Bohol is one of the most beautiful, exotic islands of the Philippines. Bohol is famous for its chocolate hills,  beautiful beaches,  forests and mountains, home to the endangered tarsiers, and exhilarating rivers and waterfalls.    The people are friendly and hospitable.

PINOCOCO MAMBO BAMBOO COLLECTION

Dance to the rhythm  -  the merging of the past with the future, the struggle of every man to stand out, the war to use plastic or natural...

Pinococo has been inspired to create the following collection mixing the calm swaying nature of bamboo into lively dangling of chains - chains that bind mortals to survival, vanity, and fashion.

In this collection, PINOCOCO explores indigenous bamboo, as the main component, in costume jewelry sets exuding edgy, a bit punky, yet sophisticatedly urban in design and finish.
