Celebrate International Women’s Day with Frida Kahlo & Licensed To Charm

International Women’s Day is a time to honour strength, creativity, and resilience—qualities embodied by one of the most iconic female artists of all time, Frida Kahlo. At Licensed To Charm, we celebrate bold women and their stories through our handcrafted jewellery. This year, we tribute Frida with the Viva La Vida Heart, Garden and Love and Pain ranges, a collection inspired by her remarkable life, her passion for self-expression, and her unbreakable spirit.

Whether you’re looking to treat yourself, a friend, or someone who inspires you, our Frida Kahlo jewellery is designed to empower—featuring beautifully crafted necklaces, charms, and bracelets that reflect Frida’s essence.

Frida Kahlo: An Artist, A Fighter, A Visionary

Frida Kahlo is known for her striking, deeply personal paintings, but her legacy is just as much about her unwavering spirit as it is about her art. After contracting polio as a child and surviving a devastating bus accident as a teenager, Frida found solace in painting. Through vibrant, unfiltered self-portraits, she told stories of pain, passion, and perseverance, refusing to let adversity define her.

Her tumultuous relationship with Diego Rivera, her unapologetic individuality, and her deep connection to Mexican culture made her a revolutionary figure. Frida’s message is clear—stand your ground, embrace who you are, and never be afraid to live boldly.

A Jewellery Collection Inspired by Strength & Creativity

The Viva La Vida Heart range captures the essence of Frida Kahlo in handcrafted recycled sterling silver and 18ct gold vermeil. At the heart of this collection is the Frida Heart charm, a striking design framed by birds and flowers, echoing the vibrant energy of Frida’s art. The charm’s scalloped edge is a nod to the rays of the sun, symbolizing endurance and spirit—a perfect tribute to an artist who lived fearlessly.

Maggie, the creative mind behind Licensed To Charm, has always been drawn to the power of storytelling through jewellery. With every piece she designs, she finds a way to bring narratives to life—whether it's the courage of Frida Kahlo, the whimsy of the Moomins, or the nostalgia of childhood favourites. This Love & Death collection is one of her most meaningful projects yet, celebrating Frida’s journey and the unyielding strength of women everywhere.

A Statement of Individuality & Empowerment

The collection also features the Aztec Skull Charm, the Viva La Vida Heart, and the Pointing Hand Charm, all brought together in a stunning handmade charm bracelet that embodies Frida’s fearless energy. Each piece is crafted in the UK with sustainability in mind, using recycled sterling silver to honour both craftsmanship and conscious creation.

Pair the charm bracelet with the Skull Charm Silver Necklace for a bold, artistic statement that celebrates individuality.

Celebrate the Women Who Inspire You

Frida Kahlo’s legacy is a reminder that strength comes in many forms—in art, in self-expression, and in the stories we tell. This International Women’s Day, Licensed To Charm invites you to honour the bold, creative, and inspiring women in your life with a piece of jewellery that reflects their strength.

The Frida Kahlo Love & Death collection follows on from our Frida’s Garden collection and is just one of many licensed collections celebrating women, creativity, and storytelling.
