About KOKKU
ONE VISIONARY FAMILY
At KOKKU we believe that in order to do something well you must be proud of what you do, and we truly love Jewellery!
Our goal is to make intricate, elegant fine jewellery that is as wearable in everyday life as well as on special occasions. Our vision is to "preserve by promoting" traditional artisan crafts, such as filagree, giving them new life and personal meanings to people around the world. Our jewellery is made entirely by hand, using the skills that have been handed down through generations within our family of jewellery makers and for 3,000 years before us.
For years, our family has celebrated special occasions such as engagements, weddings and birthdays in our lives with a piece of filigree jewellery (also known as filagree) to seal memories around a specific event. We hope that you enjoy our jewellery collection, and we would be thrilled if you buy a piece of KOKKU real gold jewellery to celebrate one of your own special moments.
Andrea and Ansula Usai
BEHIND KOKKU
Ansula, half German and half Sri Lankan, inherited the creative spirit from a generation of architects and designers, while Sardinian-born Andrea, represents the fifth generation of filigree business in the family.
KOKKU takes its name from a Sardinian amulet made of onyx or obsidian and silver that protects newborn babies against the “evil eye”. We chose the name after an illness left our second child completely without appetite; only when a KOKKU was placed around his neck did he regain his health and vitality.
