The Story
Five years ago, Paula Mendoza submerged herself into the world of jewelry. Ever since, each of her collections has created a fresh and unique combination of natural elements with precious metals - so you will never own two of the same. Each piece is unique like the stone that inspires the design.
Colombia is Paula's country of origin as well as one of her major inspirations, and the source of materials found in each of her collections.
Paula Mendoza has traveled extensively and each journey fills her with inspiration. After all, the world of jewels is infinite.
