Once I had a dream. I dreamed up a collection that would tell the history of the most important forest in the world and portray its unique beauty. This forest, Amazonia, happens to be in my native country, Brazil.I put my heart and soul into this collection. I wanted to create pieces of jewelry that would encapsulate the life and beauty of the Amazon, allowing you to experience the lush vegetation and heartbeat of the forest, and let you see the animals in their own habitat.
The Ocelot is a feline species that is roughly twice the size of a domestic house cat. It most often represents intuition, wisdom, and feline self-assurance. I chose the Ocelot to serve as a reminder of your personal strength and authority. As I created this piece, I wanted to symbolize perception and create a totem that serves as a reminder that sometimes we see the world in a way that others cannot.
Three years ago, the Amazon was engulfed by devastating fires. That’s when I felt compelled to do something. My heart was hurting, and I couldn’t sleep, thinking about how mankind could inflict such damage on Mother Nature’s most bio-diverse land.
This collection means so much to me. I’m donating 10% of the proceeds directly to the Rainforest Trust, where funds are used where they’re needed most, directly on the grounds of the Rain Forest.
