About Vagalumea

Welcome to the tiny studio where metalsmithing meets curiosity and gemstones get to glow like they mean it. Vagalumea is my handcrafted jewelry line inspired by nature, light and the little sparks that make life interesting. Its name comes from the Portuguese word for fireflies - a nod to my Brazilian roots and the tiny glimmers of magic that have always followed me from place to place.

Every piece in this Valentine's drop was made by hand at my bench, one at a time with a lot of love for the process. I don't mass-produce anything here - each design is forged, finished, and sent out by me. Thank you for supporting small, handmade work and for being part of this little studio's story.
