About us
Arkandis: the ancien ethnic jewelry boutique
Arkandis offers a carefully selected collection of antique and vintage ethnographic jewelry, traditional silverwork, beads and small cultural objects from around the world.
Each piece is chosen for its craftsmanship, history, patina and individual character. The collection includes jewelry from North Africa, the Middle East, the Himalayas, India, Central Asia, the Americas and other regions with strong traditional jewelry cultures.
Many of the objects are handmade and bear the marks of age, wear and previous use that make antique jewelry unique. Whenever possible, origins, materials, periods and cultural contexts are researched and described as accurately as possible.
Arkandis is intended for collectors, jewelry lovers and anyone drawn to authentic objects with history, character and a strong sense of place.
