Hello,

My name is Raquel, and I’m the founder, designer, and maker behind Forged Muse.

Forged Muse is more than a brand—it’s an extension of who I am.

I was born between contrasts. Between art and science. Between luxury and simplicity. Between beauty and chaos.

I’ve always adapted to the people and places around me, almost like a chameleon. Yet one thing never changed: I was always an artist.

My first encounter with jewellery happened when I was fifteen while travelling and living in Brazil. I didn’t know it then, but creating would become the thread connecting every chapter of my life.

As the years passed, life became more extreme. I lost myself somewhere between darkness and beauty. When I finally found my way out, I realised I no longer knew who I really was.

Then life stopped again.

I became seriously ill and spent months unable to work or even leave my home.

During that time, I started creating again—not to build a brand or a business, but because it was the only place where my mind became quiet.

That’s when I realised something: in trying to leave my old self behind, I was leaving the artist behind too.

Forged Muse was born from finding her again.

Today, that same philosophy lives in every design.

Some pieces are modular. Others refuse to belong to one style. Every piece is created to adapt to the person wearing it—not the other way around.

Working with premium Italian vegetable-tanned leather, high-quality faux leather, stainless steel, reclaimed materials, and unique upcycled elements, I create accessories that evolve with the people who wear them.

You wear the piece.
The piece never wears you.

Because life isn’t about choosing between chaos and beauty.

It’s about learning to embrace both.

Control Your Chaos.

Forged Muse creates handcrafted wearable art for those who refuse to fit into one category. Every piece is designed to move with you, evolve with you, and become part of your own story.
