About the design
The leaf is designed with inspiration from the “Skogsek” (Swedish), in German, “Sommereiche” or “Stieleiche,” and in English, “Quercus Robur,” also known as “English Oak”. My series “Eklöv” consists of various interpretations of oak leaves, designed as jewelry and graphic design. The oak, which has stood there for centuries and bears witness to another time, stands firm like a goddess over everything around it. Its gnarled branches stretch toward the sky, like hands carrying the weight of time. Beneath its sturdy bark rest stories of times gone by, and in the wind, the leaves whisper the secrets of summer. Every autumn, these whispers fall silent as the leaves slowly become part of the earth. I want you to carry the summer’s stories with you.
I see the oak as a symbol of security, courage, and strength – both for myself and for culture, humanity, and nature. Through this collection, I want to honor the oak’s strength, beauty, and symbolism. It is an interpretation of the oak’s timeless elegance and a reminder of its significance in our shared heritage.

Taking Care of Your jewelry
Brass oxidizes over time when it comes into contact with skin, water, wind and weather. This may result in lovely brown and golden hues on the item. If you prefer to avoid this, keep your jewelry away from water and remove it when bathing or showering. If oxidation occurs over time, you can easily polish it with brass cleaner to restore its shine.
