Basing her work on a contemporary approach, Portugal-based designer Lia Gonçalves shifts between jewellery and design, with a minimalist aesthetic and a deep concern about functionality.
With a graduation in Jewellery Design and master in Product Design, her pieces combine geometric lines and organic elements with traditional handcrafted techniques, exploring simple and usable shapes. The focus of her creations intends to involve and connect directly the user.
Since 2010, when the brand was launched, main source of inspiration are celestial bodies, planets and moons, their shapes, textures and movements. Minimalism, handcrafted work and silver created characteristic design signature.
