Ofrenda Jewelry, talismans for our time
Unique jewelry inspired by ancient wisdom, to awaken your soul and create a new world
A sustainable brand crafting jewelry for those who are awake or awakening (and also “woke”).
Ofrenda Jewelry is inspired by weaving three topics that have guided humanity for thousands of years: archetypes and symbols, shamanism, and sustainability. Together, they offer a language older than words, one that helps us remember how to live with reverence, meaning, and care as we face the future.
As we collectively face ecological, social, and spiritual challenges, these ancient frameworks offer something essential: perspective. Ofrenda Jewelry is my nerdy and material study of how personal adornment can become a reminder of our highest self and how we can act for the world’s greatest good.

Through jewelry-making, writing, and storytelling, I share what I learn about the universality of archetypal themes and symbolic practices, honoring primordial Indigenous knowledge and ancestral wisdom. The jewelry is the result of translating these concepts into wearable objects for modern life, so they can become ornaments of social restoration and personal and collective healing.
I’m no expert, just a jeweler and student of spirituality, an advocate for a more-conscious jewelry industry, and an active participant in my local community; a believer in humancentric values, environmental regeneration, and progressive political activism; offering unique and meaningful jewelry, artisan-made.
Ofrenda Jewelry is crafted for people who are spiritually curious and intellectually open, those drawn to mysticism, art, personal growth, and the deeper questions of life.
Ofrenda Jewelry is for you if:
• You know who you are
• You have traveled, explored cultures, and sought meaning beyond the surface
• You are curious without being snobby, thoughtful without being rigid
• You value beauty, depth, authenticity, and symbolism
• You wear unique jewelry not just as an adornment, but as a personal talisman
Unique, meaningful, jewelry artisan-made
"Let these jewels connect us to an enlightened past that might inspire us to become better humans."
Hi, I’m Cecilia, founder and designer of Ofrenda Jewelry, a Jewelry Design graduate from the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) with a previous degree in Architecture.
Ofrenda Jewelry is a sustainable brand that offers wearable art crafted with brass, copper, sterling silver, and Fairmined certified gold. Being a Fairmined licensed brand, my pieces embody a commitment to more-ethical practices, and, in tune with my passions, gold has been an allegory for spiritual transformation since time immemorial, and what better way than jewelry made with Fairmined gold, which transmutes mining into social impact.

You’ll find the jewelry in my Shopify store and all my musings on this website. Enjoy, and please share your thoughts!
