Portalis - KAPISTREE

JEWELLERY THROUGH TIME

As far back as we find artefacts, we find ancient jewellery. These fragments of the past capture something remarkable - the human need to express identity, meaning and emotion through adornment. Jewellery tells the history of the human spirit, carrying stories that still resonate today.

THE KAPISTREE STORY

THE KAPISTREE STORY

Kapistree brings ancient artefacts back to life through contemporary jewellery. Designer and artist Dr Natalie Williams creates each piece as a dialogue between past and present, combining carefully selected historic artefacts with distinctive, handcrafted design. Every Kapistree piece is individually created and entirely unique.

Director Jacob Jørgen Sedgwick, collector and curator of the Kapistree artefact collection, searches for objects with exceptional artistry and meaning - small works that still carry something of the people who made and treasured them.

Together, collection and design give these ancient objects a new chapter. Made once to be held and worn, they return to the body as living works of art, connecting the wearer to the human story across millenia.
