We create timeless jewellery with a contemporary edge, inspired by modernist design, coastal beauty, and the artistry of craftsmanship. Each piece is minimal, meaningful, and designed to be worn every day, by anyone, for a lifetime.

K.Hands was founded by designer Katie Hands, whose lifelong love of jewellery began in childhood, trying on pieces far too big at her mother’s and aunts’ dressing tables, imagining herself on red carpets and magazine covers. That early sense of wonder evolved into a ritual of collecting jewellery on her travels, each piece a marker of memory, place, and time.

K.Hands is guided by the belief that jewellery is more than adornment, it is memory, expression, and presence. Designed to be worn every day, accessible yet luxurious, and unbound by age, gender, or trend, each piece invites connection, feeling, and enduring style.

The first K.Hands piece was forged in Bali in 2020, during a period of stillness and reflection. A simple silver ring, stamped with its year of creation, became the beginning of a journey: transforming raw material through fire, hammer, and touch into something enduring.

Katie Hands, Founder

In 2021, Katie returned to the west coast of Ireland, where K.Hands took shape as a brand. Its identity is anchored in the rhythm of the Atlantic shoreline and elevated by her passion for art and design, particularly the clarity of Bauhaus and the imagination of Surrealism. Each collection reflects this balance, where natural textures meet minimal form, and subtle colour recalls the vibrancy of modern art.
