Birka Lexia was first initiated 2017, as a space to freely communicate through material and form. It started with small sculptures, that over time turned into wearable pieces.

With an appreciation for the unusual and an urge to explore, I design your jewelry in castable wax and work intuitively as I sculpt each design by hand. 

Fragments from ancient artifacts, sculptural objects and surrealism are all interpreted and infused into the Birka Lexia jewelry.

Through my background in Fine Arts, a Professional Bachelor degree in Jewelry Technology and Business, and a foundation semester at NEXT School of Goldsmiths in Copenhagen, Birka Lexia slowly took shape into a universe of its own.

I create your jewelry with a lot of thought and attention. They’re made in small batches, made-to-order or custom made to fit your needs. You'll also find a range of one-of-a-kind pieces in the collection.

I primarily work with traditional goldsmithing techniques, and once in a while incorporate modern technologies.

Each piece origins from the jewelry workshop in Copenhagen.

Recycled Precious Metal
If you care about how your jewelry’s been made, you’re in the right place. A fair transparent production and responsibly sourced materials are core pillars for Birka Lexia.

The jewelry is crafted with as much recycled metal as possible. 

The casted sterling silver jewelry comes from 100 % recycled silver. The silver chains and components contain of mostly recycled silver, where new silver is added when needed.

Gold
All the Birka Lexia gold jewelry are made with 100 % recycled gold. The gold come from old gold that’s been refined and reused. The refining process take place in the EU and follows EU laws regarding the environment and working conditions.

The metal that’s been used in the jewelry has been approved by the Responsible Jewelry Council (RJC).

All Birka Lexia jewelry boxes are made out of FSC-certified cardboard and water-based glue.

An FSC-certified product means that it comes from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits. For example, in an FSC forest, there won’t be more trees cut down than can be reproduced.
