“All women can be reborn if we believe in ourselves and work for it every day.”
BIOGRAPHY
I am a creative, strong, versatile, and enterprising woman who has a love for design tattooed on her soul, which connects me with my most human side.
After making a name for myself as an interior designer over 20 years, I changed the course of my life in 2011 and decided to follow my dreams by doing what I am truly passionate about. I then launched my own brand of handcrafted designer jewelry with the clear goal of revolutionizing the world of goldsmithing through new colors, shines, and metal textures.
I found my inspiration in the beauty that exists in nature; since I was a child, I discovered a fascination with bugs, their shapes, their whimsical colors, and in this way, I began to collect them. From this passion, the BEE emerges as the representative icon of the Regina Castillo brand, a symbol that reflects our hardworking essence, our community, and our passion.
The pieces we produce are unique and collectible; most of them are made of .925 silver with pyrite stone inlays and faceted stone pendants crafted using ancient techniques by Mexican artisans. Over time, I have perfected the quality and technique of my pieces; I specialized in binding marcasite to subsequently apply gold, rose gold, and oxidized silver plating, based on the pavé technique that distinguishes me so much.
All of our collections represent who I am and what I want to convey to women, always utilizing domestic labor and resources.
Throughout this decade, I have collaborated with renowned artists such as Daniel Espinosa, Abel López, Fernanda Espíritu, Alejandro Carlín, Sandra Weil, Carlos Pineda, Benito Santos, Susana Rodríguez, Sarah Galindo, Cristina Obregón, Daniela Cassab, Verónica Díaz, Lydia Lavín, Paola Hinojos, Brizegno, and Macario Jiménez.
In 2019, the Fashion Group Mexico Association awarded me "Jeweler of the Year," and some time later, Quién magazine recognized my career as one of the 31 Mexican women who have driven change in the fight for social well-being, in my case, focused on women.
