The Avila Story
Avila Jewellery Designs is an independent jewellery brand born from a love of making and influenced by the places and experiences that have shaped my journey.
The name comes from the Ávila mountain range in Caracas, Venezuela - a view I came to love and a place that became an important part of both my life and the story of the brand.
My journey as a jeweller has taken shape across several countries. Through my studies with Jewellers Academy, I began learning traditional jewellery-making techniques while living in Tanzania, working with both silver and gold, then continued into fine jewellery in Lebanon, and later advanced my skills in Venezuela. Since then, I have continued exploring new techniques through silver metal clay and wax, each one adding another layer to the way I think about form, texture and design.
Exploring Form
Over time, my work has begun to move towards more sculptural, curved and organic forms, as I explore how these shapes can develop through different techniques and materials.
Avila continues to evolve alongside my own journey as a jeweller, bringing together the skills, experiences and influences I have gathered along the way, as I explore new ideas and gradually shape the designs that will become part of its story.
