The pictures don't do justice to this stunning pendant. The only thing that I was a bit dissatisfied with at first, was the fact that the tip of the crystal was slightly chipped, something that was not disclosed when I bought it. However, I can live with it. Very pleased overall. Thank you Natalia.

About
Living and learning.
Hello and welcome!
My name is Natalia Araya and I am a Costa Rican maker currently living in Spain.
I run my own studio which is the "Atelier" here you can find one of a kind jewelry pieces made in a traditional manner using mostly recycled sterling silver which is worked in a way that allows the metal to react to the fire naturally, creating rich textures.
On my first jewelry class I was told that the only way to learn to make jewelry was to spend hundreds of hours on the bench working.
I dived in without really knowing at the time that it would become such a personal practice which truly changed my life, jewelry has given me freedom and it has taught me self determination.
I also carry a contemporary jewelry line which allows me to explore different topics, materials and motivates me to keep traveling, learning and to try to understand this fascinating relationship we have with objects.
Thank you for taking a peek inside my world, for any inquiries you can find me at nataliaraya [!at] gmail.com
A little bit about me:
I like living a simple life, I don't need a lot to be content.
I was raised believing in fairy tales and ghosts, lots of laughter and innocence.
I think every goal can be achieved if you are constant and work hard enough.
Yoga.
I think we should be greatful and never take things for granted.
I don’t step on bugs…
I like giving compliments to strangers.
I got the sense of humor of my father and the eyes of my mother.
I love learning new things and to try to discover the "Why" of everything...
I love travelling and moving around you can follow my blog to see a bit of it in my personal instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/_nataliaraya_/
I have longer hair than anyone I know..
I have no idea where I'll be in 5 years but I do know what I want to do the rest of my life.
I choose to have faith in many things and I believe in signs.
I am Natalia, I make jewelry to be worn an enjoyed and some to answer my own inner questions through making.
I feel blessed to do what I love and I really couldn't ask for more.
