Collection: Constanza Bielsa

Constanza Bielsa (Argentina, Chile)

Here's Constanza's bio, matched to the same shape as Icha's and Natalia's: origin into the craft, process and materials, then the thread of meaning underneath it all.

Constanza Bielsa trained as an architect in Santiago de Chile, going on to study sustainable architecture at Universidad Católica. Somewhere along the way, the same curiosity that drew her to buildings and their structures led her toward something smaller: jewellery. She studied at Escuela Tacto under Claudia Correa, with further training under Carles Codina and Jorge Castañón.

She now works between architecture and her own jewellery workshop, building each piece from materials that might otherwise be thrown away: textile scraps, paper, bioplastics, taken from a flat design through laser cutting and into form. Sterling silver and cotton thread often hold the pieces together, a meeting point between digital tools and handwork.

Her necklaces are often volumetric, their shapes traced back to patterns found in nature: the curve of a leaf, the rhythm of a shell, the way colour repeats across a single bloom. For Constanza, giving overlooked material a new shape is also a way of asking us to look again at what we discard, and finding in it something worth keeping.
