STRAND (Beach) - The treasures that are right in front of you
Lying on the stomach in the sand. Walking along the sea. On a boat trip. We have all collected them – the beach stones. Those that caught the sun's glitter, had a rare stripe, or fit so perfectly in the hand.
With the collection STRAND, we want to highlight the beach's own treasures – created by the earth itself millions of years ago and now gently polished to be worn as jewellery. A perfect gift and a way to preserve the feeling of summer all year round.

From the earth to mankind
They carry their millions of years well – all the jewels of the STRAND (Beach). Each little stone is a memory from the Earth's origin and dramatic history, worn down by ice, wind, and water. Nature has an infinite spectrum of colors that all match each other and our own human color scale.
We commissioned the stone cutter Johnny Juthman from Övermark to work with our head goldsmith Maria Karlström's collection of Åland beach stones to create beads in the beach's own soft color scale. We have framed them in oxidized 925 Sterling Silver.

Nature is bigger than our webshop
After the first summers with STRAND (Beach), we have learned that all of nature's stones are equally beautiful. We really want to offer the collection in our webshop, but only if you are prepared to receive any colors and color combinations on the stones.
If you would like to choose your STRAND (Beach) jewelry yourself, you are warmly welcome to our shop in Sjökvarteret on Åland.
You can also email or call us if you have a request!

Beach stones from Åland
I spent summers at my grandfather's cottage, which is still in the family today. There I drifted along the shoreline and let the stones catch my eye. I collected and collected. The stones never had any real function, perhaps they lay on a windowsill until someone cleaned them away. And I collected new ones.
I picked the stones for the collection STRAND (Beach) together with my mother and my daughter. Three generations of women at grandfather's STRAND (Beach), with pockets full of treasures. They were then cut and shaped by Johnny Juthman from Övermark, just north of Närpes. HAN (He) have the same feeling about the stones as I do, that there is something magical about the ancient material.
