We are big fans of Rita Row. It’s no secret. We are blown away by the women’s clothing and swimwear collections this brand, with its slow fashion vibe, delights us with each season and which it produces on the Costa Brava with the Mediterranean Sea lapping at its feet. The new Rita Row SS18 collection is called Maraca and for us it feels like the perfect partner for our summer range of jewellery.
Circles represent balance, beauty, perfection. The iris of the eye. The graphite core of a pencil. A perfect droplet. Life moves in circles. And the new Cercles collection by sculptor Sara Domènech does the same. Jewellery that flirts with circles, deconstructing them and forming stunning miniature sculptures.
We’ve been looking for an excuse to sit down with Joid’art’s creative director so that she can tell us about herself, her work and her jewellery for some time now. And at last we’ve found it!

We are Mediterranean, we like good company. That’s why we’ve put together the Joid’art & The Barcelona Makers project to join our jewellery with the creations of Barcelona designers and artists. And we’re bringing them to you in our stores, so that you can get a taste of the city’s originality.
The Joid’art zone in Barcelona’s Carrer Call has been revamped. New turquoise walls, new furniture and beach sand lend a more Mediterranean air to our creations. Come and see it, and let us know how you feel.
Holidays are finally just around the corner! Days of sun, sea, breathtaking landscapes and, above all, R&R await. Wherever we are and whatever we do, we can’t forget to put our cares aside and put on accessories that reflect the state of wellbeing in which we find ourselves. At times like these, less is more.

When we bring metal and wood together, passing them through the creative filter of the Joid’art Lab, the results emerge as eye-catching collections such as Nastya SS14. These are pieces of jewellery that reflect an ancestral element —their forms reminiscent of ancient totems—at the same time as demonstrating minimalistic and contemporary tendencies, influenced by the work of Daniel Buren.
