About

TIERNA is an intentional, independent designer brand founded by Muzii (Christina Benildes Carvajal) in Miami, FL.

With a deep reverence for natural elements and the stories they carry, TIERNA’s designs blend mixed media and original photography into wearable pieces. Each piece is a deep reflection that merges art, nature, and identity.

My work thrives on the belief that what we wear is more than adornment—it is a bridge between creator and wearer. Every jewelry piece is handcrafted, and photographic pieces are made to order, each crafted with the inherent trust that the wearer will bring it to life, weaving their own narrative into its existence. I find inspiration in the raw, the real, and the symbolic, infusing each piece with self-expression, poetry and lived experiences of beauty.

TIERNA is for those who seek meaning beyond beauty. It’s for those who understand that wearing art is an expression of both power and play—a deliberate act that bridges past and future, the seen and unseen. In a world of mass production, my creations honor collectivism and individuality. An ode to the intimate connection between maker and wearer.

Each TIERNA piece invites you to embrace the ritual of adornment, living artfully and authentically. Endless gratitude for your love + support.

With love always // Siempre con amor, 

Muzii
