Postcard from Costa Rica | Custom Travel-Inspired Jewelry
Welcome to paradise, where the lush jungle meets the sea and each sunset carries the calm of the coast.
This month, we’re sharing a postcard from one of the most vibrant places we’ve ever explored. Picture shimmering sand beaches, natural hot springs, and jungle trails lined with almond trees and wild hibiscus. Scarlet macaws soar through the sky. Howler monkeys echo from the treetops. The pace of life softens here, shaped by the tide and warmed by the sun.
From the black sands of Playa Negra on the Caribbean Coast to the healing springs of Tabacón, this dreamy location’s biodiverse landscapes make the perfect inspiration for our travel-inspired jewelry designs.
Costa Rica
Whether you’ve walked these shores or dream of visiting one day, our personalized jewelry collection lets you carry a piece of Costa Rica with you. Choose meaningful elements from this iconic destination from our Sandbank and create the ultimate souvenir – made to carry the feeling of “pura vida” wherever life takes you.
The Bubbles Necklace

Each bezel in this multi-element beach necklace evokes a bubble rising through the sea and to the shore—layered in color like ocean depths giving way to a sunlit surface.
This playful, artful design features up to ten small bezels, each filled with sand or stone from meaningful destinations. We curated a Costa Rican palette that celebrates the country’s coastlines and colors:
Playa Negra (Puerto Viejo)
Smooth black Caribbean sand from a peaceful beach lined with bike paths, reggae cafés, and fresh coconuts.

Playa Manuel Antonio & Playa Playitas
Warm-tone sands connect the rainforest with the ocean, and wildlife is part of the view. Both beaches are located by Manuel Antonio National Park, the countries smallest yet most frequented National Park, home to over 352 species of birds, 109 species of mammals and 100 species of reptiles and amphibians.

Isla Tortuga

Powder-soft white sand from this duo of tropical islands — Alcatraz Island and Tolinga — known for boat trips, snorkeling, and crystal waters.
We added stones like Amazonite, Apatite, and Mother of Pearl to mirror the coastline’s shifting blues and jungle greens.

The Modern Metal Bracelet
The elements added to this bold Art Deco-style bracelet were inspired by the country’s cloud forests and volcanoes. They’re a tribute to the country’s powerful terrain, where volcanic energy symbolizes transformation, resilience, and the ever-evolving beauty of the natural world.

Rooted in strength and transformation, this bold design features Malachite, a deep green stone tied to growth, healing, and connection to nature. It’s framed by earth from Tabacón Hot Springs, a natural geothermal paradise nestled beneath Arenal Volcano.

Inspired by Costa Rica’s volcanic heart, this bracelet reflects the balance between energy and ease — the feeling of stepping into warm, mineral-rich waters surrounded by jungle mist.
Its clean lines and bold center make it ideal for layering or wearing solo.
