Kodu Jewelry: Home is a place you always carry in your heart

Kodu Jewelry is dedicated to the special love we feel for our physical and ephemeral home, whether we still live in our native country or abroad.
Heidi Lees has had a rather unexpected journey into the world of jewellery. She has a doctorate degree in chemistry and works as a senior researcher at a deep tech start-up. During her studies, she lived abroad several times. Three years ago when she was returning home to Estonia after studying in the United States, a friend gifted her a Rhode Island state necklace adorned with a heart over the city of Providence.
“The gift was so meaningful and warmed my heart. I thought that there must be other people besides me who would like to have their home or something dear close to their heart,” says Lees, founder of Kodu Jewelry.
The word kodu means home in Estonian. “Home is a place we can always carry with us in our hearts. Our collection celebrates those everlasting, endless connections,” smiles Lees. The jewellery is suitable for Estonians abroad or anyone who wants to honour the connection with their roots. You can personalise the design with your hometown.
The jewellery is made in Estonia using direct metal 3D printing technology, which is significantly more sustainable compared to traditional jewellery making. The collection is made from 100 per cent ethically sourced recycled Argentium sterling silver 925 and with nearly zero waste, and the designs are only printed on demand. Kodu Jewelry welcomes collaboration with brands in other countries.
