Celebrated Ukrainian fine jewelry house Guzema continues its expansion into the US market, launching an exclusive limited-edition collaboration with model and musician Delilah Belle Hamlin. Titled “Metamorphosis,” this collection joyfully revisits the vivid, daring fashion of the early 2000s, an era known for its playful mix of textures, radiant accessories, and boundless creativity. Defined by bold individuality, this time in fashion history profoundly influenced the imaginative designs showcased in this special partnership. Butterfly wings, symbolizing personal transformation, anchor the collection. This imagery deeply resonates with Delilah Belle Hamlin: “I’ve always loved butterflies—of course I find them beautiful, but their evolution fascinates me. Like a butterfly, we all go through different stages of growth and transformation. Over the past five years, I’ve felt a personal shift, like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly. That transformation represents my growth, challenges, and ultimately, becoming the person I am today. The butterfly’s wings are a nod to that journey—I’ve entered a new phase in my life, and I’m ready to fly.”
For Valeriya Guzema, founder of the eponymous brand nearly ten years ago, this collaboration symbolizes a significant turning point: “The last three years have been rife with challenges and heartaches. And like the butterfly, I too have been transformed. But I am entering 2025 committed to embracing joy and that is what this collaboration has been for me. I am approaching my partnerships with intention and gratitude, and Delilah has been an open heart since day one. Creating this beautiful, dreamlike collection is an emblem of personal growth and the magic of embracing change.”
While transformation is central, the collection also pays homage to heritage—a core value shared by both Delilah and Guzema. Delilah recalls the influential roles her mother and grandmother played in shaping her understanding of jewelry:“My grandmother and mother always placed deep meaning behind their jewelry. It was never just an accessory; it was always an extension of emotion and storytelling. That perspective has shaped the way I view jewelry today, and it played a big role in this collection.” The seven-piece collection features a choker, earrings, an ear cuff, bracelet, and rings available in 18k yellow gold and 18k yellow gold accented with diamonds. The designs’ flowing lines reflect the carefree spirit of the early 2000s, while the choice of yellow gold echoes the glittering style of that iconic era: sunlight reflecting off glossy lips, the metallic sheen of flip phones, and the vibrant glow of urban nightlife.
“Metamorphosis” invites wearers to rediscover the optimism and fluid self-expression of a period defined by rebirth and limitless potential.
