Imagine strolling along the Mediterranean shores, in a little town near Barcelona…

This is where my journey began.

As a child, I spent countless hours at the beach, mesmerized by the beauty and mysteries of the sea.

With my hair tousled by the salty breeze…

My pockets filled with incredible seashells…

I would carefully search for the prettiest ones. Each shell felt like a tiny treasure gifted by the sea.

After a long day at the beach, with sun-kissed skin and sandy toes, I’d return home and empty my pockets onto the table.

I couldn’t wait to marvel at my findings.

I’d sit for hours, carefully selecting each one…

Stringing them together with clumsy but determined hands.

The necklaces I made were far from perfect, but to me, they were magical.

I still remember the joy of giving them away—slipping them over my mom’s neck or handing them to a friend with a proud smile.

Sometimes, I’d keep one for myself, wearing it like a secret piece of the sea I could carry with me everywhere.

It was my way of sharing the sea’s beauty with the people I loved.

Those moments shaped me…

They taught me to see the beauty in every shell, every ripple, every breath of the sea.

As I grew older, I never lost that feeling—the wonder, the connection to the sea.

But I also began to see how much it was struggling...

Pollution and neglect were leaving their mark on the waters that had given me so much.

That’s when I realized that my deep love for the sea needed to become something more…

That’s how Mediterranean Ousia was born.

A brand that values meaning over excess.

Creating small and thoughtful collections, each piece designed to tell a story and honor the beauty of the Mediterranean.

In a world overwhelmed by mass production, Mediterranean Ousia offers something different: jewelry with purpose, created to inspire and connect.

This commitment is at the heart of everything we do, drawing inspiration from the treasures of the Mediterranean.

It’s about celebrating the Mediterranean—its beauty, its fragility—and taking action to protect it.

That’s why a portion of every purchase goes to organizations that clean and protect the Mediterranean Sea, helping to keep it alive and thriving.

Every time you choose one of our pieces, you’re contributing to the vitality of our seas - You’re becoming a guardian of the seas.

It’s a movement of change, connecting the heart of Mediterranean Ousia with our shared aspiration for flourishing seas.

It’s a tribute to the waters that have inspired our passion and sparked our creativity.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

With love,
