In this episode of Bling Talks, host Anthony sits down with Konstantina Mahlia the founder and CEO of Mahlia Collection, a fine jewelry brand celebrated for its 18K gold, one-of-a-kind pieces that blend Greek heritage, luxury, and symbolism.

Konstantina shares her fascinating journey—from her beginnings at the Tucson Gem Show to landing Saks Fifth Avenue as her first major client. She reveals how her multicultural upbringing and love for art, writing, and debate shaped her worldview and her mission to create jewelry that transcends trends and connects to the soul.

They discuss the deep meaning behind her designs, from butterflies symbolizing transformation to bees representing community and purpose, and how every gemstone and metal carries its own frequency and energy. Konstantina also opens up about navigating a male-dominated industry, collaborating with rare artisans around the world, and why repurposing gold is essential to Mahlia’s commitment to sustainability.

She dives into how she built a global brand by embracing authentic storytelling and digital innovation, years before it became the norm. Konstantina also talks about her book “CC: The Booklet”, her podcast “Boldly Feminine,” and her new silver and fashion lines that bring the Mahlia vision of empowerment and consciousness to a wider audience.

Whether you’re a designer, collector, or creative entrepreneur, this episode will inspire you to build with authenticity, lead with purpose, and see luxury through a more soulful lens.
