For Those Who Look Behind the Curtain

This brand is for those who have always felt there was a mystery to be solved just beyond the curtain.

You notice the details. The flicker of an old film. The strange little object in the corner of the room. The magician’s hand before the trick is revealed. You get attached to stories, collect moments, and find beauty in things that were never meant to be perfect.

You’ve always had a soft spot for the unusual. For old cinemas, theatrical illusions, forgotten treasures, and the kind of magic that feels a little more convincing when you can see the strings.

You don’t need everything to make sense. You like a little mystery. A little darkness. Something beautiful with just enough strangeness to make you look twice.

OXALIS is for you.

A jewellery house somewhere between the dressing room and the theatre. Between the first frame and the final scene. Inspired by early cinema, stage magic, and the wonderful art of making something impossible appear real.

Every piece is handmade, beaded, and carefully constructed — jewellery and small artefacts for collecting, wearing, layering, and keeping close.

Because life is already strange enough.

We’re just here to make it a little more magical.

Hi, I’m Lina,

the hands behind OXALIS.

For a long time, I was trying to find the right stage.

I moved through fashion school, theatre school, vintage shops, cruise ships and marketing jobs, always thinking the next version of my life might finally feel like the right one. I left schools, jobs, places, and versions of myself behind more times than I’d like to admit.

But somewhere along the way, I realised I wasn’t looking for a place to fit into.

I was looking for something that felt like mine.

In 2019, anxious, burnt out, and tired of trying to make sense of everything, I picked up some old beading supplies. I just needed to make something with my hands.

The first thing was meh, but eventually I made something I couldn’t stop looking at.

So I kept going.

I’ve always been drawn to things that carry a little mystery. Old films. Stage props. Beads and trinkets. Things that look ordinary until you look twice.

That’s what OXALIS has become.

It’s still just me, making things by hand, somewhere behind the curtain.

But if you recognise something here maybe you were meant to find your way in.
