ABOUT IRENE MARGARITA

I  was born in Colombia and raised in the Netherlands. For over twenty years now, I’ve been living in the city of Amsterdam. 

I love the city I live in but have also been exploring the world extensively since the age of seventeen. Especially travelling by myself, mostly through South America, gave me the most wonderful and unexpected experiences. I was amazed by the diversity of culture, history, people, and nature I stumbled upon during my travels. 

By the age of nineteen I was hiking barefoot through the Amazon rainforest. It would have been wiser to wear shoes, but I felt very connected with the earth underneath my feet. This way, I felt being part of this stunning nature. Some of these natural elements, like stones and wood, are processed in the jewelry I sell nowadays!

Some years later, I traveled through Brazil and saw the most beautiful women wearing these extraordinary jewels. These women wore a lot of jewelry with colorful and radiant semi-precious stones. And they wore it with pride! I immediately fell in love with their exotic style and realized a good outfit needs the right jewelry. It’s an extension of a woman's identity and expresses who you are. 

After I finished the fashion academy, I designed clothes and shoes for several brands, but I didn’t feel fulfilled. Thinking back of what I saw in Brazil, I started my own business in jewelry. Since then, it always makes me very happy to provide beautiful jewelry to women who want to wear outspoken pieces made of natural materials, but with a feel of class and luxury.

I provide a small edition of each piece. This way you can feel more unique, and it guarantees that not everyone wears the same!
