Today we’d like to introduce you to Kesha King-Hokey.
Joe Hokey & Kesha King-Hokey were born and raised in Sarasota, FL. In 2019, Kesha began crafting more as she had always been able to be creative with her hands. She’d also always been attracted to silver and gold, as well as crystals and gemstones, but began exploring that more. Joe always made sure there was sage and incense in the home. Joe and Kesha were always consumers of gemstones, jewelry and sage. There was a moment that they decided they could and should start creating what they loved. So Joe pushed the idea forward and started producing orgone pyramids and pendants for necklaces and setting up staging props. That transition is where Joe and Kesha established what is now known as KinJo Kolectiv LLC.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It actually has been a rather smooth road for us in regards to the business aspect, especially with other issues we’ve been faced with in life. It definitely strengthens our bond to be on this journey together.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
We create unique one-of-a-kind gemstone jewelry and specialize in wire-wrapped gemstone jewelry. In addition to our jewelry, we also sell other metaphysical items. We are most proud of all of our wire-wrapped jewelry because we only make original pieces and are known locally by our unique wire wrap style. We do not create multiples of an item. If someone sees an item they like, we can create something similar, but not alike. What sets us apart from others is (1) our originality in our designs and (2) our kinship. We have been together since 1991 and we put all of our love into the jewelry we create.
Are there any important lessons you’ve learned that you can share with us?
To be consistent and original.
