Explore Julia Otilia’s slow jewellery blog with inspirational posts on slow living & sustainability and much more.

Julia Otilia offers sustainable, ethical, consciously made jewellery lovingly designed and crafted by hand in our studio in Utrecht, The Netherlands. Our timeless and refined designs with a Scandinavian touch are inspired by the beauty of nature, to inspire you to live and love with full presence and heart.

Our slow jewellery philosophy shines through every aspect of our work process: we select our conscious materials with great care and make all of our sustainable jewellery pieces by hand, to ensure that they are durable and carefully crafted – meaning our designs are made to be enjoyed by you for a long time to come.

On our slow jewellery blog we share tips, guides, styling ideas and inspirational posts on slow living & sustainability, but also behind-the-brand info, for example about our craftsmanship & organic materials. Be sure to read and follow for fresh slow jewellery inspiration.

Julia Otilia's passion lays in capturing the fine details of nature. The silence of a mirror blank lake. The twirling dance of a falling leaf. Or the gentleness of an unfolding flower.

It is these delicate, precious moments she is wishing to express in her jewellery. This is her source of inspiration.
