I Was Born a Soldier Collection

In this collection of one-of-a-kind collars, Daniella transforms crochet into sculptural jewelry. Metallic fiber, intricate handwork, and unexpected embellishments, many of which are evocative of armor, come together in pieces that balance strength with softness and tradition with individuality.

Many of the collars take their names from powerful women and figures from mythology and folklore, giving each piece its own identity and character. Details range from fringe and beads to brooches, cuffs, and coordinating earrings.

Every piece is handmade and one-of-a-kind. Daniella hopes these adornments make the wearers feel as empowered as goddesses and warriors they were named for.
