Adam Andrew Silva, born 22nd of July 1998.

As a young kid I was always intrigued by many things that happened around me. From people, to nature, to even how the ocean smells and sounds. Picking up everything from a kid until today that made me see things how they are or should be, I created Wild Youth. It stands for living life in a way that everyone should do everything that their heart desires, no matter how weird it sounds or feels. To be free, to be fulfilled.

Being inspired by people I’ve met and came across over the years, Wild Youth was created to give inspiration, motivation and hope to live your best life possible. To always have a wild youthful side in yourself, no matter the age, to take risks and embrace them to unlock your full potential. It were the wild and youthful ones that changed the world.

When I got my first sketchbook, my drawing skills were the same as a regular 4 year old. I locked myself up in the bedroom at my parents place for hours and spent months of watching youtube tutorials of how to draw a ring and sketched 100’s of examples until I got better and better. The whole process took me about 4-5 months of late nights, trial and error to finish it and be happy with the final collection that it is today. I wanted it to be authentic so I drew everything with paper and pencil.

Having both Portuguese as Dutch roots, it was the only way to give Wild Youth the best of both worlds.Born and designed in Amsterdam, handmade in Portugal by a family business that makes jewelry for a 100+ years. 

Every piece that is made and you receive is a reflection of a feeling and vision of mine and I hope that it will bring you as much joy and happiness as it does to me. 

From me to you,

Thank you.

Born from an idea, feeling and passion. Wild Youth is created, crafted and inspired by people who dare to be themselves by taking control and enjoying life in the best way possible. Having references from world changers that contributed to nature, sports, history, culture, to close friends and family. This is the story and meaning to live freely, on the edge, but most of all, fulfilled.

Made by hand in Portugal by a family business from a father to his children, it represents care, craftsmanship and uniqueness on its own. From the first step till the last, it has been touched by many for it to be authentic and for you to receive the best results possible. With love for jewelry, character and style we want to create a world that you can relate to.

‘For the youth to reach the stars’

Everybody is part of our planet. It is not only our home, but also our playground and we should all take care of it, no matter how big or small you are.

We do our utmost best to preserve and make the world a better place. From the materials we use, the transport and the packaging you receive at home, everything is sustainable, bio-degradable and ethically produced.

The silver and gold we use for every piece of every collection is recycled, which means that no mining took place in the process to get the materials out of the ground, but it’s being given a new life and purpose.

The way we transport everything is done in a way that provides less CO2 emission.

Our packaging is made out of bio-degradable material that uses natural glue and water based ink that requires no extra energy to be made. It is FSC® certified and industrially compostable.

With Wild Youth we tend to make and give something timeless, unique and beautiful to everyone that feels our identity and vision without putting pressure on our home.
