Missing – Rolf Ekroth Linked by Kalevala

Kalevala Preloved secondhand jewelry is also part of the joint collection of fashion designer Rolf Ekroth and Kalevala Jewelry. Circular economy is an important part of Rolf Ekroth's design philosophy, and that is why the designer is inspired by Kalevala Preloved secondhand jewelry.

Rolf Ekroth's Missing collection premiered in August 2023 at Copenhagen Fashion Week. Kalevala was the first Finnish jewelry brand to participate in the Copenhagen fashion week. The collection also aroused enthusiasm at Paris Fashion Week at the turn of September and October 2023.

The Missing collection includes e.g. a set of hoodies in different colors, whose faded tones and retro cuts are complemented by unique recycled Kalevala Pidetty jewelry. In addition, the collection includes a hand-woven dress from the Kalevala bronze chain, which weighs no less than 2.5 kilos.

"The Kalevala Preloved jewelry of the past decades fits perfectly into my collection, which was born from longing for memories of the past and nostalgia from many generations," says Rolf Ekroth.
