MY INSPIRATION

Ever since I was little, I've been fascinated by my grandmother's little jewellery box. I would always ask her to open it and show me, one by one, the pieces she kept inside.

But what fascinated me most wasn't simply how beautiful they were. It was listening to her tell me the story behind each one: the moments she had lived wearing them, the memories they held, and what made each piece so special to her.

Now that some of those pieces have been passed down to me, I understand that jewellery can hold so much more than beauty — it can hold a lifetime of memories.

And that is where CARMINA begins. From my wish to create my own little jewellery box, filled with pieces that accompany me through life, hold my memories, and perhaps one day, can be passed on to someone I love.

Because I want our jewellery to have a story to tell, too.
