About
Read a bit more about me and the history of how my business came into being!
A childhood memory recently resurfaced, reminding me of my early creative journey. Around the age of twelve or thirteen, I spent afternoons sketching little fairies with sparkling wings and dresses. From a young age, I found solace in drifting away into my own world, crafting things that existed only in my imagination—things that felt natural and beautiful, yet unreflected in the world around me.
The aesthetics of the fantastical, the forest nymphs and elves whispered about in stories, have always spoken to me. Their fierce femininity, their boldness and bravery, the adventures of the unknown and undiscovered—they stir something deep within me: a sense of belonging.
Now, as I walk the path of adulthood, I’ve come to see womanhood as something profoundly magical. Living intrinsically with the cycles of life every month—birth, blossom, decay, and rebirth—is part of my existence. To be a womban (womb-woman) is to embody a sacred connection between heaven and earth, to be a portal of creation. And creation extends far beyond the act of birthing human life; it encompasses the birthing of ideas, of art, of expressions of our deeper self.

And as I’ve grown older, I've been feeling a closer connection to the name given to me at birth: Rikst. Over time, I’ve come to appreciate the strength it holds and the connection to my Frisian and Germanic roots. Rikst means "mighty, powerful, and substantial." These qualities have become a guiding force in both my life and art, shaping how I look at the energetic wisdom of the feminine.
My jewelry is a reflection of that meaning: a celebration of strength, presence, and worth. Through my designs, I strive to bring women REMEMBRANCE to not only recognize their innate wisdom but to embody and express it. Every piece I create serves as a reminder to wear that inner LIFE FORCE boldly and unapologetically, as if it were a part of you—an adornment of your soul.

I so warmly invite you to weave ritual and ceremony into your life as a profound way to connect with your cosmic feminine codes and in this way, to contribute to the emergence of a new earth—a world that thrives on community, expansion for all, intuitive wisdom and abundant creative expression. To me, rituals are more than practices; they are vibrant expressions of our personal journeys, aligning us with the deeper rhythms of the universe.
Each time one of my designs finds its home - from one heart to the other -, it symbolizes to me a shared connection and a reminder that we are all part of something greater and sacred. In our collective rituals, we come together to celebrate our divine essence and nurture a more harmonious and expansive world.
Aho ♥
