Find something you lost a thousand years ago
There was a time when our tribe had other beliefs than today. The dwelling place of our heroic gods was the starry heavenly vaults, and the souls of the deceased continued to live on in the depths of the earth, on the other side of the Kingdom of the Dead. In those days our Snake, Bird, Bear, Salmon, Elk and Eagle were more than just mere items of jewellery. They were creatures of power, representing the link between man and a world unknown to us. They brought their bearers the wisdom of our ancestress and power of the gods in songs.
Kalevala Ò Jewellery collection brings these ancient symbols back to life. Designers have taken original motifs from treasure troves and turned them into contemporary jewellery for everyday or special occasions.
Perhaps the sheer beauty of this jewellery attracts you. Put on these stunning pieces and you will discover that beauty may not be the only reason for wearing them, even today!
