Chinese New Year is more than a celebration. It is a moment of renewal, intention, and symbolic gifting that has shaped jewellery traditions for centuries. As we enter the Year of the Horse in 2026, a sign associated with courage, movement, and transformation, jewellery becomes a powerful way to mark new beginnings with meaning. In this article, I explore the cultural roots of Lunar New Year jewellery, the symbolism of the Horse, and how Wild Weaves pieces can be worn as modern talismans for confidence, clarity, and growth in the year ahead.

A chapter is ending in Barcelona and a new one is beginning in Italy. Before Wild Weaves Jewellery moves forward, I want to honour the place that shaped it with one last celebration at Essyello. This is a story about community, craft, and coming home.

Jewellery has always carried more than beauty. From ancient civilisations to modern rituals, gemstones have been chosen for their power to protect, heal, and tell deeply personal stories. At Wild Weaves Jewellery, every stone I work with is selected not only for its colour and form, but for the meaning it carries and the connection it creates with the wearer. In this guide, I take you through the history and symbolism of the gemstones found in my collections, revealing how each one holds a story of intuition, strength, love, and transformation. If you have ever felt drawn to a particular stone without knowing why, this journey may help you understand what your jewellery is truly trying to say.

This zodiac guide is my way of helping you find pieces that feel aligned with who you’re, not just what you wear. Zodiac-inspired jewellery is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give: a Libra friend might love a matching necklace and earrings set; a Cancer partner may cherish a pearl bracelet filled with emotional symbolism; a Sagittarius sibling might adore a turquoise-accented necklace that feels like a travel talisman.

Whether you’re bold like Aries, romantic like Libra, mysterious like Scorpio, or dreamy like Pisces, there is a piece waiting to mirror your energy.

There is something quietly magical about turning a thin strand of metal into jewellery that feels soft, fluid and alive. When people first touch a wire-knitted piece from Wild Weaves, they’re often surprised by its flexibility and warmth and that surprise is what first drew me to this ancient craft. What began as curiosity grew into respect for a technique with roots stretching from early civilisations to modern makers today. Wire-knitted jewellery is not a trend, but part of a long human story of metal, textiles and patience. In this article, I share where this craft comes from and why knowing its history makes wearing it even more meaningful.

Valentine’s Day is around the corner and while flowers and chocolates fade, jewellery lasts. At Wild Weaves Jewellery, I’ve seen how a carefully chosen piece can carry meaning far beyond a single day. Every necklace, ring and pair of earrings I make in Barcelona is handmade with intention, designed to be worn, lived in and loved. In this guide, I’ll share why jewellery remains one of the most thoughtful Valentine’s gifts, explore current trends and show how selecting a piece with story and care can make this Valentine’s truly memorable, for someone else or even for yourself.

Wild Weaves Jewellery just hit a small but meaningful milestone. In January, my shop earned Etsy’s Star Seller badge, a tiny star that represents something much bigger behind the scenes. It’s a quiet acknowledgement of the care, consistency, and love that goes into every handmade piece, every message answered, and every order packed here in Barcelona. This isn’t a story about overnight success or big numbers. It’s about slow work, human connection, and what it really means to run a handmade jewellery brand with intention.

Since November, a selection of Wild Weaves Jewellery has been available at LOTTA in Barcelona, a collaboration that came together quietly and naturally. What began as a simple partnership turned into a meaningful alignment of values: slow creation, thoughtful design, and pieces made to last. In this post, I share why having Wild Weaves at LOTTA matters, what it means to see handmade jewellery in a carefully curated physical space, and how collaborations like this reflect a shared commitment to quality, intention, and conscious fashion.

The knitted aromatherapy collection brings together handcrafted jewellery and simple everyday rituals. Each piece is made using knitted 18k gold-plated or 925 sterling silver-plated copper wire, combined with stainless steel elements and a natural lava stone bead that holds a few drops of essential oil. The stone slowly releases scent throughout the day, creating a subtle, personal aromatherapy experience without candles or devices. Designed to feel lightweight, flexible, and easy to wear, these pieces are made to fit into real life rather than stand apart from it.

How Handmade Jewellery Made Its Way Onto a Runway in Riga

Seeing my handmade Wild Weaves jewellery on the runway in Riga with Novaliss was surreal. Pearls, wire-knit textures, and organic forms moved with the garments, adding warmth, texture, and story without competing with the look. This moment proved that slow, intentional jewellery belongs alongside couture and reminded me why I started Wild Weaves: to create pieces that carry meaning, connection, and quiet beauty. Read on to discover how handmade jewellery made its way onto the runway and why craftsmanship still matters in fashion.
