Brazilian Design

Jewelry with Brazilian Gem Stones

For decades, Brazil has enjoyed an international reputation for it's unique and colorful gemstones.

The Brazilian Style can be described as a passionate and free celebration of life.

In Jewelry, the bold Brazilian style is characterized by large hoop earrings, jewelry with dynamic parts that move, ankle bracelets and lariats with sliding clasps. Designs may feature a single large colored stone surrounded by diamonds, fancy-cut gems, and bold geometrical or asymmetrical design.

The Brazilian gemstone is literally the centerpiece of Brazilian jewelry – and a key selling point. Among the most popular stones are aquamarine, citrine, amethyst, emerald, rutilated- smoky- and pink- quartz, rubellite and pink and green tourmaline. The design of Brazilian jewelry is based on the uniqueness of Brazilian stones, that vary in terms of size and combination. Often rough stones are used as they come from nature, as well as traditional, calibrated stones. Lately, fashion has tended to develop around larger stones, like cabochons.

Brazilian design is a very modern, contemporary look. It tends to be inspired by nature. Up to not so long ago the Brazilian style was not defined. Nowadays it can be summarized as a mix of Europe with exotic influence.

The relative price of Brazilian jewelry is one of the strongest selling points. Brazilian jewelry manufacturers have direct access to many of the world’s most popular gemstones in their own backyard and labor costs are lower in Brazil than in the US and Europe. Brazil exports are also tariff-free under the Generalized System of Preference agreement with the US.

Aquamarines from Brazil are of the best quality. The stones are stunning and all one of a kind.
