The Magnolia stellata caught my attention with its distinctive star shape and long, slender petals. It became the starting point for both the design and the name Estella, a subtle reference to stellata, Latin for ‘star-shaped’. I translated its form into filigree, building the flower petal by petal.

Each petal is filled with tiny filigree elements that I make individually by hand. I first create the fine filigree wire myself from silver or gold, then shape it into the small elements that make up the design. One by one, I place them inside the frame before soldering the flower together, with a traditional tomatillo at its centre. One of the things I love most about filigree is that the closer you look, the more you see: all the tiny details, the individual elements and the work that goes into bringing them together.

The open structure makes Estella surprisingly light to wear. It gives the flower an airy quality while preserving its distinctive star-shaped silhouette.

From First Idea to Final Detail

At Diosa del Alma, the person who imagines the jewel is also the person who makes it. Elizabeth designs and creates each piece herself, from the first idea to the moment it leaves her atelier.

This gives her the freedom to let a design evolve as she works. Proportions may shift or an unexpected detail may take the jewel in a new direction. Elizabeth enjoys leaving room for those moments rather than deciding everything in advance.

That same way of working makes personalisation a natural part of the atelier. Elizabeth can respond to individual wishes herself and shape a jewel with the person who will wear it in mind.

Becoming a goldsmith was never part of the life she had imagined for herself. Until then, her career had been in the world of fashion and luxury. She had also built her own business, before serious illness unexpectedly changed the course of her life.

Several years later, during her recovery, she began learning to make jewellery. It was initially intended to support her rehabilitation, but she quickly became absorbed by the craft itself. She went on to train further as a goldsmith, discovering a direction she could never have imagined before her illness.
