Who We Are

We want to make change in how we create by using locally source and eco-friendly materials. Taking the materials that are discarded and bringing it back to life. 

Preserving the technique and craftsmanship of handmade we co-create, build and reinvest in woman artisans in Kenya helping provide for their families.

Adding Chokitem to be apart of your soul and letting us accessorize your body is making huge impact to our mission, creating jewelry with a purpose. 

Our Name

Chokers play a dominate role in accessories, for fashion it became a must have accessory.

We have taken- Chok as the first meaning for our name followed by the word Item referencing from the phrase, “Those two are an item”.  A strong connection between you and your jewelry.  Placing both together Chokitem was born. 

With every design has a story to tell and the only way to know is to explore, take the risk, be inspired and inspire others. One timeless piece becomes that one of a kind you can’t live without.
