Hi, I am Katia.


Born and raised in Antwerp, Belgium, I have never been able to keep my hands still…

Art and fashion trained. Textiles, cord and yarn, materials as well as color have always spoken to me.

I taught myself beading and spent years chasing a way to elevate it. Something rawer, something more permanent. That search led me to metals, which directed me to silversmithing, where creations became tools for storytelling, emotion and identity.

Now creating from South Florida, each piece reflects patience and exploration.
cuistax.design is the collision of everything I’ve been building toward.

And I’m still not done.

A woman with sunglasses standing in a city street with her arms outstretched and smiling, with a large pink balloon shaped like a cartoon character floating above her head.

Every stone, every bead, every clasp is personally sourced, handled, considered and chosen by hand before it ever becomes a piece. No factory floors, no bulk orders, no duplicates. Most of what you see here will never exist again in exactly this way. It’s not a limitation. It’s a feature.

Each piece is assembled by my hands, with intention, one at a time. What you are buying is not just jewelry, it’s the only one of it’s kind.

That matters to me. I hope it matters to you too.
