ANDRA JEWELRY
[COLOMBIA]
Founder of Andra Jewelry. I was born in Santa Marta, Colombia, grew up in Monteria, and currently live in Medellin. I’m passionate about craftsmanship and hard work, so I hand-make all the designs in my brand along with some local artisans. Andra is all about providing people with a spiritual connection while being fashionable and in accordance with current trends.
Andra was initially started as a business creation for a degree project. I was in Guadalajara, where I attended the largest jewelry fair in Latin America. I saw a large sign that said, “jewel the business of your life,” and decided to undertake this project. The name of my brand comes from the Andes Mountains, which is the longest continental mountain range on earth. The grandeur and majesty of the mountain range are some of our main sources of inspiration. I love fashion, jewelry, and design, and I also believe in spirituality and energies transmitted through stones. Each stone we sell at Andra is unique, colorful, and comes with a special meaning, just like each woman who wears it.
As a child, I used to take jewelry classes, which I loved! That’s where I learned how to make my first necklaces. I’ve always been passionate about fashion but also knew how superficial it could be. With stones, I found the perfect balance between a fashion brand and something that allows individuals to connect with their essence.
Our boho-chic styled accessories inspired by Colombia are made of gold-plated brass and 925 sterling silver for deluxe designs. The way the stones are used for each Andra design adds a bit more elegance to your look. Since they’re the trendiest this reason, our current collection includes chains and hoops.
We are a brand that highlights and accompanies the beauty of the authentic, strong, and brave woman.
