ABOUT MAQUIA
Maquia was born from a lifelong relationship with making things by hand and a deep respect for meaningful objects.
Founded by Colombian designer Andrea Sánchez, Maquia blends artisanal jewelry with intention, symbolism, and thoughtful design. Each piece is created slowly, with careful attention to material, proportion, and detail. The goal is not to follow trends, but to create jewelry that feels personal and lasting.
At the heart of Maquia is a belief that beauty is not superficial. It is a quiet force that creates presence, confidence, and joy. Jewelry does not invent that beauty. It reflects it.
The peacock is a recurring symbol within the Maquia universe, not as ornament, but as meaning. Like the peacock, beauty unfolds when it is given the right space, naturally and confidently, without explanation. This idea guides how each piece is designed, expressive, intentional, and individual.
Maquia is crafted between Colombia and the United States, honoring traditional techniques while embracing a modern and wearable sensibility. The result is jewelry that feels symbolic yet effortless, refined yet alive.
Each Maquia piece is designed to accompany women in their everyday lives, not as decoration, but as a reminder of who they already are.
BORN IN COLOMBIA
The brand’s creative roots are deeply connected to Colombia’s tradition of craftsmanship, material sensitivity, and expressive design.
Each piece begins as a thoughtful sketch and is developed through a hands-on, artisanal process that includes metalwork, plating, assembly, and finishing. Production takes place between Colombia and the United States, allowing Maquia to honor traditional techniques while maintaining a modern, wearable approach.
Colombia’s cultural richness and natural landscapes influence the brand in subtle ways, not as decoration, but as perspective. The result is jewelry that feels intentional, expressive, and grounded, carrying its origin with quiet confidence.
