Welcome to Yesterdam on Etsy!
The inspiration for this project came from my love of modern jewelry. As far as career choices, my passion for health and animal care led me to the veterinary field. However, I still wanted to express my passion for contemporary jewelry design. It all started as a side project in 2017, when I started making pieces for my sister and myself. I learned about materials and techniques and became a self-taught jewelry designer. Once I gained more confidence, I began gifting my jewelry to family and friends. Thanks to the encouragement and support I received, Yesterdam was born.
Yesterdam.com relaunched late August 2023. I've now decided to showcase my designs on Etsy as well! Our jewelry draws inspiration from various elements that ignite our creativity. From sleek and minimalistic styles to bold and edgy designs, our pieces capture the essence of the modern aesthetic.
Moreover, celestial bodies have always fascinated humanity, and we find inspiration in their mesmerizing beauty. The stars, the moon, and the planets that adorn our night sky serve as a constant reminder of the vastness and mystery of the universe. We strive to create not just jewelry, but wearable works of art that tell stories and evoke emotions.
Our jewelry is made with top-quality recycled metals such as stainless steel, titanium, sterling silver and/or 18k PVD gold. We stay away from lead, cadmium and nickel. No more green skin!
Every month, we reduce our carbon emissions by financially supporting conservation projects around the world. These projects include things like planting trees and investing in renewable energy sources that help decrease climate change's impact.
