about kim & eva
our story.
It might sound crazy; but we're convinced that the universe brought us together. A goldsmith and a coach starting a venture together might not seem like the most obvious collaboration but we both love how jewelry can change the way you feel about yourself.
This is how we came up with KEVEDI, our version of “what do you choose to see?” in Italian because things aren't always as they seem.
From experience we know it’s not always easy to stay true to yourself and so we invite you to rise to the challenge. You don't have to be perfect to be loved, you have to be you. Now more than ever, our beautiful world needs authentic and courageous people who are who they want to be and say what they want to say.
Our mission is to empower every woman to love who she is ánd care for our planet.
We want our jewelry to symbolise just this, so you will always find something unexpected in each jewelry piece to remind yourself that you are a phenomenal woman.
“If you are always trying to be normal, you will never know how amazing you can be.”

about Kim.
Kim grew up in various countries in Latin America, Africa and Europe before she turned 18 so even though she looks typically Dutch from the outside she feels international on the inside. From a very young age Kim has learned to adapt to new environments and situations so this probably explains Kim's "super-senses" to read people accurately.
When it comes to people, Kim is both passionate and curious. Every person has a story. A reason for being the way they are. In her work as a coach, and from the people close to her, she often gets the feedback that she has a gift of connecting with people. Sensitive and caring as she is, she hears and sees things others don't notice.
For Kim it's about looking behind the mask we wear and helping people to find the courage to be all that they're meant to be. As we are multi-facetted creatures, we have so much to give but we don't always give ourselves permission.
Kim is married and a grateful mom of three little rascals, Cuno, Kiki and Cypriaan. It is for them that she feels we need to pull it together, open up our hearts and make our own light.
about Eva.
Eva is an exceptionally passionate goldsmith, born within a caring family in Amsterdam. From a very young age she was heartily fascinated with jewelry. Pulling at her mother's earrings and wearing her grandmother's necklaces. Looking back, the strong women in her life proved to be truly inspiring. These inspiring women expressed themselves genuinely through their jewelry. Jewelry embodied their mood and their personality. It added to who they are.
For Eva designing and creating jewelry is about tradition. Jewelry definitely helps to mark precious milestones in your life. She feels enthusiastically inspired to create jewelry for these special moments for you. Eva knows what she is talking about. She recently became mother of her little son Jonathan. Now... what do you think she designed for herself?
