I am Julie, the creator of Gypsea Soul.

The desire to create this jewellery has been rooted in my many travels around the globe, which has allowed me to discover different cultures and the immensity of the ocean, making them endless sources of inspiration for unique pieces.

I lived on Gili Trawangan for a few years and whilst teaching diving, I always dreamed of designing my own jewellery.

Each piece I design is a manifestation of my passion for the ocean and my inexhaustible thirst for adventure - a beautiful way to carry memories.

It all started in Africa, where Aziz helped me put my first ever drawing of the SEA ring into a beautiful sample. Since then whilst travelling, I have met many talented artisans from all over the world: Domingus, Rino, Aziz and Badi, who have put their know-how into the creation of these jewels. Imbued with their own history and their personal touch, making them unique and singular. Each piece is handmade with recycled 925 silver, which means that these little treasures can last a lifetime as long as they are taken good care of.

And then on a trip from South Africa to Mozambique with my talented friend @alfredminaarphotography, he captured the first images of what has become "Gypsea Soul".
