Middaia is a Paris-based jewelry line founded in 2021 by self-taught designer Jade Nguyen Van, whose background in textiles and ceramics informs each creation. Inspired by antique costumes, folkloric traditions, and medieval illumination, Jade sculpts every piece by hand using the ancient lost-wax technique before casting it in metal. Each product celebrates the intimacy of the handmade and the timeless artistry of traditional craftsmanship.
