During these All Saints days, we remember those who came before us. In many families in Spain and Latin America, what remains of them is both very small and very large at the same time: a medal worn by their grandmother, the one given to us at our baptism, the one passed from mother to daughter.

That is why we want to tell you who we are and why we do what we do.
We are Marian and Bárbara, two sisters between Madrid and New York
We grew up surrounded by medals: those of our parents and grandparents, the ones given at a baptism or First Communion, the ones worn all our lives. Small pieces that hold the faith, affection, and memory of a family.
Over the years, we missed medals that had that same meaning and that, at the same time, fit our style. That is how Khartes Madrid was born: religious jewelry that combines the tradition of Spain with the color and energy we have experienced between Madrid and New York.

How wearing a medal is back in fashion
In Spain and Latin America, the medal has passed from generation to generation: it is given at a baptism, First Communion, or wedding, and worn close to the heart as a sign of faith and protection. We always wear a medal, and we want you to also be protected and beautiful at the same time: with the Virgin or the saint who accompanies you, in a piece of jewelry so beautiful that you will want to wear it every day.
How we work
- Original design. Each medal is born in Madrid, inspired by our family and tradition.
- Handmade in Spain. With natural pearls and stones, and hand-applied enamels: no two are alike.
- An act of love. To give at a baptism, First Communion, wedding, or difficult time.
All our medals come with their chain, are wrapped for gifting at no extra cost, and shipping is free from €65.
Thank you for being part of this story.
