THE BRAND
INÊS SANTOS celebrates personal expression through jewellery that tells meaningful stories. We believe self-expression is essential to who we are, and the pieces we choose to wear become part of our narrative.
Rooted in Portuguese goldsmith heritage, each collection is meticulously designed to capture timeless elegance while speaking to contemporary life. From nature-inspired forms to sleek modern lines, our pieces are created for those who value craftsmanship, intention, and lasting beauty.
Jewellery-making is the ultimate expression of art meeting craft—and every piece we create honours this truth.
Our Core Pillars
PORTUGUESE HERITAGE
Rooted in centuries of Portuguese goldsmith tradition, our pieces carry forward the exceptional craftsmanship Portugal is renowned for. Each collection honours this heritage while embracing contemporary design.
MEANINGFUL DESIGNS
Every collection tells a meaningful story—from nature's organic forms to symbols of connection. Our designs invite you to find pieces that resonate with your own narrative and become part of who you are.
RESPONSIBLE LUXURY
We work exclusively with RJC-certified artisans and ethically sourced materials. Our commitment to responsible practices ensures your jewellery is created with integrity, transparency, and care for both people and planet.
TIMELESS QUALITY
From premium 18K Gold Vermeil to solid gold, we use only the finest materials chosen for lasting beauty. Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail—jewellery designed to be treasured for generations.
OUR STORY
Craftsmanship runs in our blood. Inês grew up watching her grandfather and great-grandfather work as tailors — learning that true quality lies in the details, in patience, and in the hands that create. At 12, a school jewellery project sparked something that would never fade: a passion for creating pieces that endure.
A DREAM BECOMES REALITY
For years, jewellery-making was a beloved hobby—evolving from simple beads to more intricate designs, always searching for that perfect balance of beauty and permanence. But it remained just that: a passion waiting for the right moment.
That moment came when we decided to build something together. As a couple, we took the leap—leaving our comfort zones to turn our shared dream into reality. Living abroad but proudly Portuguese, we founded Inês Santos with one clear mission: to share Portugal's extraordinary goldsmith heritage with the world.
HONOURING HERITAGE, BUILDING LEGACY
We work with master artisans in Portugal, where centuries of goldsmith tradition meet contemporary design. Every piece connects our Portuguese roots to a global vision—jewellery that honours where we come from while celebrating the stories of those who wear it.
This is more than our business. It's our life's passion, our evenings and weekends, our way of honouring both the craftspeople who came before us and the dream we're building together.
WELCOME TO INÊS SANTOS
From our hearts to yours, we create jewellery that celebrates cherished bonds and meaningful moments. When you wear our pieces, you're carrying forward centuries of Portuguese tradition—honouring both the artistry of the past and the stories yet to come.
