QUALITY
The highest of standards are maintained throughout Matilda’s entire process. From collecting mica to casting and setting every last stone, Matilda makes sure that each piece of jewelry is made to last. Matilda’s commitment to quality is of the utmost importance. Every piece is inspected by hand and given close attention to detail before being sent off.
GROWTH MINDSET
staying curious and open to new ideas, perspectives and ways of seeing things is vital as a person, as a business, and for creating designs. As a creative, curiosity is essential. Matilda notices all the small details, always listening intently from an intuitive place.

“Challenges are what get me into a state of flow, and flow makes life worth living, so I look forward to them.”
