About

the kp project is the work of Kostas Papadimakis — a curious engineer and maker. Every design begins with the mathematics of knots, transformed in code and carved on machines built in the studio, then finished by hand. What makes each piece truly one of a kind is its own combination of wood, color and design.

If you're also curious, the stories behind the pieces →

Two forms

The difference is the side profile. Curved pieces are domed — thicker at the center, tapering to the edge, so the face catches light softly. Flat pieces hold an even thickness across the disc, for a cleaner, more minimal look. Same knot mathematics — two characters.

Arrives ready to gift

Every pair comes in a handmade wooden box — a gift in itself.

A few questions

How big are they?
About 2–3 cm — light and comfortable to wear.
What are they made of?
Natural wood — shown in its real color, never painted over. A range of exotic, characterful species, with the carved design picked out in color by hand, on hypoallergenic titanium ear wires whose color is anodized by hand to harmonize with each piece's wood and tones.
Will they bother sensitive ears?
They shouldn't — the ear wires are hypoallergenic titanium: nickel-free, light, and skin-friendly even if other earrings tend to irritate you.
Are they eco-friendly?
As much as can be — natural wood, plastic-free packaging, and hypoallergenic titanium. (The color in the design is acrylic.)
Are they really one of a kind?
Yes — each is unique in its wood, color and design, and is never remade.
Are the photos real?
Yes — the photos of the pieces are real: every one is the actual earring you'd receive. The only exception is the worn shots, which are AI, clearly labelled, and there purely to show scale — no real models were harmed (or hired) during the shooting. With one-of-a-kind pieces I can't put every pair on a model, and there's no marketing budget here: the price reflects the many hours of hand-work in every pair — and the materials — not photo shoots. You're paying for the making.
How do I care for them?
Keep them dry, and store them in their box when not worn.
What if my earrings are lost or damaged in the post?
You're fully refunded — always. What I won't do is remake the same pair: each piece is truly one of a kind, so its exact wood, color and design can't be reproduced. Everything ships tracked and insured, so if anything goes wrong on the way, the refund is on me.
Can I buy one now?
The shop is opening soon — join the list and you'll be first to know.
