About me

Hi, welcome to Mina da Alegria!

My jewelry journey started in a funny way — when my eldest daughter turned four, she asked me to make 11 necklaces and 11 bracelets for her birthday. I made them, and what began as a gift became my passion.

I now handcraft macramé jewelry with natural gemstones, each piece unique and made with care. Every stone has its own story, and every knot is made with love.

Mina da Alegria means “mine of joy” in Portuguese — I hope my creations bring a little happiness to your day, just like they do to mine and my daughters’.

All my pieces can be customized, so if you see something you like (or have a special idea), just drop me a message!

Thanks so much for stopping by,
Mina
