JEWELRY STORY
Gold rings with skillfully made lace-like filigree patterns were popular amongst the Swedish ruling class in the 18th century. Some of those rings found their way to the prosperous coastal cities of Finland as, at the time, the country was a part of the Kingdom of Sweden. These rings have been used as a model for many pieces of Filigree jewelry in the Kalevala Koru collection since the 1960s.
Kalevala gold jewelry are made from either 18 or 14 carat yellow or white gold. We use 100% recycled gold. A mild soap wash is enough to care for gold jewelry. If necessary, gold jewelry can also be cleaned with a gold cleaning agent, which is sold in goldsmith shops. Although gold does not darken much, it is a relatively soft metal alloy, and jewelry made of it can wear out with use.
