#1.- Who we are

The tale of Materia Rica originated in London when Marta & Joan met in the city and immediately realised that they were destined to launch many projects together, both personally and professionally. The union of Marta’s artistic creativity and Joan’s ingenuity gave birth to the common motto: showcasing her most artistic side through jewellery and accessories.

They later relocated to Barcelona where they established their studio and showroom, and began to collaborate with international artists such as Gemma Bordes, Miriam Frank, Lisa Junius, Asis Percales and Casita de Wendy, among others.

With a focus on sustainability, the designs created at Materia Rica use FSC-certified wood sourced from local suppliers, enhancing the values of traditional craftsmanship. Each necklace and earring created in the studio is dyed and finished completely by hand.

#2.- Showroom & Atelier

In 2018, they decided to open a showroom in the Gràcia district of Barcelona. For all those who want to see the beautiful laser-cut designs illustrated in the Materia Rica catalogue first-hand.

It is a multi-disciplinary space with an industrial environment that reflects the artisanal character of Materia Rica. Events, special programs and exhibitions are held there. Subscribing to the newsletter is a good way to get the latest events listing.
