There are places that remain in our memory long after a trip has ended. Chania is certainly one of them. The colors of the sea, the narrow streets of the Old Town, the smells and the special atmosphere of Crete become memories we want to keep close to us.
In Rodi, We believe that a handmade piece of jewelry can capture something from that experience. A color, a shape, or a small detail can remind us of a beloved place. This is the thought behind our creations: to design handmade jewelry in Chania They have personality, aesthetics and their own little story.
The Cretan nature is full of contrasts. The deep blue of the sea meets the warm shades of the earth, while the colors of the flowers stand out in the Mediterranean landscape.
This natural variety inspires us to experiment with colors, textures, and original combinations.
We do not necessarily want to reproduce a familiar image of Crete. We prefer to express the mood, energy, and emotions that our place creates in us.
Thus, a jewelry piece can have strong summer colors, abstract designs, or a more discreet aesthetic, while always maintaining its own identity.
Our shop is located at 26 Potie Street, in the heart of Chania's Old Town.
Here, tradition and modern day life coexist. The old facades, the small courtyards, the colorful details and the liveliness of the streets become part of our creative inspiration.
For us, the value of a jewelry piece is not limited to its appearance; it is also tied to the connection it can create with the person who chooses it.
A pair of earrings can become a cherished memory of a trip to Chania or a special gift for a loved one.
Behind Rodi's handmade creations is Eirini, who designs and crafts jewelry with imagination and a love for detail.
One of the basic materials it uses is polymer clay, a particularly flexible material that offers many possibilities in jewelry design.
The process begins with the selection of colors and the design’s configuration. Then, the mold is molded and cut by hand, gradually acquiring the desired shape.
The baking and final assembly follow, until the jewelry is ready to be worn.
Every stage requires attention. Small differences in the designs and colors make each handmade creation unique.
The handmade polymer clay earrings They combine three features we particularly love: freedom in design, intense color and comfort.
Although some designs are quite impressive in size, the material is lightweight and pleasant to use on a daily basis.
At the same time, it allows us to create original color combinations and different shapes, without the limitations encountered with other materials.
The result is jewelry with a modern aesthetic, that can be worn both in simple everyday outfits and in more special looks.
