Margarita began with someone I love and a flower that happened to share her name. Its generous shape felt perfect for filigree, and it gradually became one of the recurring flowers in my collection. Much later, I came across the Greek origin of the name, margaritēs, meaning pearl. A rather lovely coincidence for a flower that had already found its way into my jewellery.

The Blossom is Margarita at her most extravagant. A small filigree flower, set with a 4 mm faceted peridot, sits on the ear. From it falls a second, much larger flower, its surface filled almost entirely with intricate filigree and a 6 mm peridot at its centre. There is nothing delicate about its presence. It is generous, golden and made to be seen, yet the closer you look, the more the handwork begins to emerge.

I designed the larger flower to be removable, giving the earring an entirely different character when worn without it. What remains is the Margarita stud, a refined little flower in its own right and also the starting point of the Margarita Peridot Cascade.

I love having these two very different expressions of the same flower. The Cascade falls in long lines of coloured gemstones; the Blossom is all about the richness of gold and filigree. Both begin with exactly the same Margarita.

Made to Order

A Diosa del Alma jewel can be made to reflect your personal wishes. You may have a particular gemstone in mind, be drawn to a different combination of colours or wish to make a subtle change to the design. Elizabeth will be happy to explore the possibilities with you and create a jewel that feels entirely your own.

For a special occasion, Elizabeth can also help you choose a jewel to complement what you are wearing, or design one specifically for your outfit.

As each personal commission is considered individually, you will receive a quotation before any work begins. The price will reflect your choices and the current cost of the precious metals and gemstones selected.

Symbolism

The marguerite has long been associated with purity, joy and new beginnings, while peridot carries traditional associations with light, vitality and renewal.

In the Blossom, the flower appears in its fullest and most exuberant form. I like the idea of flourishing here: something that develops gradually, gathering strength until it is ready to open fully and take its place.

The vivid green peridot at its heart feels perfectly at home in that story. For me, the Blossom speaks of vitality, flourishing and having the freedom to come fully into your own.

Hallmarking

Precious-metal jewellery in the Netherlands is subject to statutory hallmarking requirements above certain weight thresholds. Diosa del Alma jewels that fall below these thresholds do not require an official hallmark.

When a jewel is required to be hallmarked under Dutch law, it is independently tested and marked with an official Dutch fineness mark.

The precious metal and its fineness are always stated in the Product Details.

Delivery

Many Diosa del Alma jewels are made by Elizabeth after an order is placed. These pieces usually have a production time of 4 to 8 weeks.

If a jewel is in stock, it will be dispatched within 2 to 5 working days. If you need your jewel by a particular date, please get in touch before ordering to discuss what may be possible.

Orders to the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany are shipped free of charge, fully insured and registered. Shipping costs for other European destinations are calculated at checkout.

Further information can be found in our shipping policy.

Returns & Cancellations

We hope, of course, that you will enjoy wearing your Diosa del Alma jewel for many years to come. Should you change your mind, a jewel ordered as offered on the website may be returned within 14 days of receipt. It must be unworn and returned in its original condition.

Elizabeth also offers the possibility of making a jewel more personal, whether through a different gemstone, a particular combination of colours or an alteration to the original design. Once a jewel differs from the version offered on the website, it is made especially for you and therefore cannot be returned.

Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer.

Elizabeth’s Atelier

Made entirely by hand

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.

Elizabeth

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.
