Melinda Maria has always existed in the space between luxury and magic — the kind of jewelry that makes you feel like you're wearing an amulet, a talisman, a little piece of protection or intention around your neck. If your aesthetic runs toward moons and serpents and ancient symbols and things that feel charged, this is the brand. Here are my 20 most witchy picks from the collection.
For those who navigate by starlight
✦ Editor's Pick
No. 01
"What Dreams Are Made Of" Necklace
Gold | Blue Opal
This is the one. A crescent moon pendant adorned with eleven vibrant blue opals, paired with a dainty star charm — the Melinda Maria piece that most feels like it was pulled directly from a dream. The blue opal catches light the way the ocean does at dusk: iridescent, shifting, alive. If you are going to start somewhere in this collection, start here.

No. 02
She's an Icon Moon Necklace
Gold | Blue Opal
A celestial statement piece with Melinda Maria's signature pave detailing in dreamy blue opal. The moon motif here reads as genuinely mystical rather than decorative — it has weight to it, intention.
Shop
No. 03
She's an Icon Moon Necklace
Gold | White Diamondettes
The white diamondette version of the Icon Moon is the more classic choice — icy, brilliant, and architectural. Layered with the blue opal version, the two together are extraordinary.
Shop
No. 04
You're a Star Lariat
Silver | Blue Sapphire | White Diamondettes
A lariat in sapphire and diamondettes — the open Y-shape of a lariat is inherently more occult than a standard pendant, directing energy downward, marking intention. Silver-toned with sapphire blue gives this a distinctly cool, lunar energy.
Shop
No. 05
You Are a Star Lariat Necklace
Gold | Moon & Star
The gold moon-and-star lariat is a softer, warmer complement to the sapphire version. Where the silver reads cool and lunar, this one reads golden-hour and solstice. Both are stunning; together they cover every celestial moment.

Ancient protection, modern obsession
No. 06
Blue Evil Eye Necklace
Gold | White Diamondettes
The blue evil eye necklace in gold and diamondettes is the ideal everyday protection piece — ancient symbol, luxury execution. The diamondette pave catches light from every angle, making the eye genuinely feel like it's watching.
Shop
No. 07
Evil Eye Medallion Necklace
Gold | White Diamondettes
The medallion format gives the evil eye motif more gravitas — a coin-sized talisman that feels genuinely amulet-like. This is the piece to wear when you need serious protection energy, not just an aesthetic moment.
Shop
No. 08
Blue Opal Evil Eye Necklace
Silver | Blue Opal
Blue opal and silver is the most psychic, most lunar colorway in the Melinda Maria lineup — the shifting iridescence of blue opal is perfectly suited to the all-seeing eye. This version has a depth and shimmer that photographs like a dream.
Shop
No. 09
Blue Evil Eye Ring
Gold | White Diamondettes
The matching ring to the blue evil eye necklace — layering protective symbols across wrist, neck, and finger is very intentional, very magical. This one is a stackable, wearable daily ritual.
Shop
No. 10
Green Evil Eye Ring
Silver | Emerald
Green evil eye is specifically associated with abundance, luck, and growth — a different energy than the protective blue. The silver and emerald combination has an earthy, forest-witch quality that the gold versions don't.
Shop
No. 11
Black Evil Eye Ring
Silver | Black Diamondettes
The black evil eye is the darkest, most banishing configuration of the symbol — specifically for repelling negativity and absorbing what would otherwise harm you. Black diamondettes in silver is genuinely striking, and genuinely different from anything else in this collection.
Shop
Hamsa, medallions, and dream talismans
No. 12
Hamsa Medallion Necklace
Silver | White Diamondettes
The hamsa — the open hand — is one of the oldest protective symbols in the world, shared across Islamic, Jewish, and pre-Islamic Mediterranean traditions. Melinda Maria renders it as a substantial medallion, paved in white diamondettes. This is serious talisman energy in a luxury format.
Shop
No. 13
Sweet Dreams Medallion
Gold | White Diamondettes
Dreams are where witches do their real work — and this medallion honors that. The Sweet Dreams piece has a softness that belies its potency; it reads as romantic, but there's something genuinely liminal about it. Wear it to bed. Set intentions before sleep.
Shop
No. 14
New Beginnings Medallion Necklace
Gold | White Diamondettes
New moon energy in physical form. The New Beginnings medallion is the piece to reach for at the start of a new cycle — new season, new chapter, new intention. The name is not incidental. This is jewelry as ritual marker.
Shop
Wear your chart
No. 15
Zodiac Medallion Necklace
Gold | White Diamondettes
A zodiac medallion is the original celestial amulet — your sign, your ruling planet, your season encoded in metal. The Melinda Maria version is substantial and well-detailed, with the diamondette pave giving it a luxury finish that doesn't diminish the symbolism.
Shop
No. 16
Zodiac Amulet Necklace
Gold
Where the medallion version is paved and embellished, the Zodiac Amulet has a cleaner, more ancient-artifact quality — like something pulled from a dig site, a thing that has held its meaning across centuries. More understated, equally powerful.
Shop
Transformation, wisdom, and primal power
✦ Most Witchy
No. 17
Pavé Serpent Lariat Necklace
Gold | White Diamondettes
The serpent is the oldest magical symbol on earth — shedding and rebirth, kundalini energy, the caduceus, the Ouroboros. Melinda Maria renders it as a lariat, meaning the serpent wraps and trails and doesn't close — it is always in motion, always transforming. The full pavé diamondette covering makes this one of the most visually arresting pieces in the entire collection. This is the signature witchy Melinda Maria piece. Full stop.

Power, instinct, and the shadow self
No. 18
Double Jaguar Cuban Bracelet
Gold | White Diamondettes
The jaguar is the shamanic animal par excellence — guardian of the threshold between worlds, master of the unseen. Melinda Maria's jaguar motif on a Cuban bracelet is unexpectedly powerful: the juxtaposition of street-luxury chain with mystical animal symbol makes something genuinely new. The double-jaguar configuration on the bracelet reads as protection on both sides.
Shop
No. 19
Jaguar Cuban Chain Necklace 6.8mm
Gold | White Diamondettes
The matching necklace to the jaguar bracelet — and together, they form a complete working: the same protective symbol layered at wrist and neck. The 6.8mm Cuban chain is substantial without being heavy, making the jaguar detail visible at distance. Wear both for maximum energy.

No. 20
Sweet Dreams Medallion + You're a Star Lariat — Layered
The complete celestial stack
My twentieth pick isn't a single piece — it's a combination. Layer the Sweet Dreams medallion with the You're a Star Lariat and you have the complete celestial talisman stack: dreams and stars, intention and wonder, the medallion carrying your wish close to your heart while the lariat opens outward toward the sky. This is how Melinda Maria is meant to be worn — layered, intentional, and deeply personal. Every piece in this list works on its own. But together? They tell a story.
