About Me

Hola. I’m Katrina — the jeweler behind Lagrimas De Oro Jewelry.
Born and raised in East Los Angeles. Still here. Still growing.

This is Lagrimas De Oro. Tears of gold. Intention alchemized into adornment. Healing you can wear.

Lagrimas De Oro means:

“I’m not feeling my best…but I know this is part of my process.”

Because healing isn’t linear. Because nothing about us is simple. Because we are always growing.

I struggle. I’ve struggled with depression, anxiety, and mania — and the shame that accompanies it. Some days are lead. Some days are gold.

Thank the Universe, I found healing in crystals and stones.
I found therapy in wire wrapping — turning my hands into portals, transforming earth’s gifts into something you can wear on your body.

This isn’t just jewelry.

This is ritual.
This is magic.
This is remembrance.

Jewelry has the power to transform how we see ourselves.
To look in the mirror and say:

“Damn. I’m beautiful.
No matter how shitty I feel.
Because everything gets outgrown.”

We are sacred and messy and evolving.

So wear the pieces.
Take up space.
Feel your feelings.
Outgrow what no longer fits.

Thank you for letting me be part of your journey
with uniquely handmade pieces born from struggle, magic, and transformation.
