Kalevala Birds of Paradise jewelry

The Birds of Paradise jewelry is perfect for those who want to combine historical significance and modern design in their jewelry. This jewelry series brings out a new interpretation of an old classic, combining the cultural heritage of ancient Tavastia, Finland, with skillfully crafted decorative plates.

Designed by Kalevala, the Birds of Paradise jewelry is made of bright golden bronze and is also available in silver. The Birds of Paradise jewelry features arch-shaped decorative plates, which are patterned on both sides, bringing out beautiful details and historical symbolism. The adjustable length of the bracelet and the lobster clasp enhance comfort and versatility.

The story of the Birds of Paradise jewelry takes us to a time when the mighty woman of Tavastia wore multi-row bronze chains that connected two church arch-shaped plates. In these plates, the chalice of life was guarded by two peacocks, perhaps symbolizing happiness, strength, or communication between people and gods. The inspiration for the Kalevala Birds of Paradise jewelry comes from a piece found in Janakkala's Kernaala, "the Tavastia festival necklace," dating back to around 800 AD.

The Birds of Paradise jewelry has drawn inspiration from this piece worn by the mighty woman of ancient Tavastia. Although it is not known exactly what these early Christian art symbols meant to their bearer, we can only imagine them being bringers of happiness or powerful protectors.

The Birds of Paradise jewelry is perfect for those who want to carry a piece of history and feel the power of an ancient piece of jewelry. The jewelry series's pieces are timeless and impressive, making them a perfect choice for those who appreciate both beauty and significance.
