THE BRAND
INÊS SANTOS was founded to celebrate the unique essence of femininity through jewellery. We believe that every person has their own style and self-expression is the most important tool for personal growth while forging the path to success.
We are proud to create our own unique designs meticulously elaborated to capture timeless elegance. Each jewel tells its own story, starting from an heritage of savoir-faire, blended perfectly with contemporary trends.
We believe that jewellery making is the definitive expression of art and craftsmanship, and each piece is designed as part of a unique and thoughtful collection.
OUR STORY
At Inês Santos, our journey started long before we became a brand. It all began with a love for arts and crafts, passed down through generations. Growing up in a family where creativity was celebrated, Inês was always surrounded by the beauty of handcrafted art, thanks to a mother who could breathe life into almost anything with her talent. And at the young age of 12, a school art project became a defining moment—a necklace was made, and a passion born.
FROM HOBBY TO HERITAGE
Back then, jewellery-making was a simple hobby, a love affair with beads, strings and the thrill of turning an idea into something tangible. But even as designs became more intricate, there was one thing missing: permanence. The early pieces, though made with care, didn't stand the test of time. They were fleeting treasures, and that didn't sit well with a vision that dreamed of legacy pieces—jewellery meant to be cherished, handed down and worn by generations.
AN EVOLUTION OF QUALITY
Fast forward, and that hobby started to take shape as a brand. Inês Santos evolved from playful experiments with materials to the refined use of precious metals, harnessing the remarkable quality of silver and gold that Portugal has to offer. With a keen eye for sustainability, we sought out responsible suppliers, ensuring that every piece of gold or gold vermeil used is of the finest quality and crafted with care for our world.
DESIGNS ROOTED IN ELEGANCE AND SUSTAINABILITY
Our designs are built on the pillars of elegance and timelessness, drawing inspiration from nature and the rich heritage of Portuguese craftsmanship. Each piece is exclusive yet accessible—created for those who value not just beauty, but also the story, artistry and care behind it. We craft jewellery to be more than just decorations—they are enduring symbols of moments, memories and love.
PORTUGUESE TRADITION MEETS MODERN DESIGN
Portugal has long been celebrated for its exquisite precious metals, with a deep-rooted history of goldsmithing and silversmithing that stretches back centuries. Porto, in particular, has been at the heart of this craft, known for its skilled artisans and unmatched quality of silver and gold. This tradition of excellence is woven into the heart of our jewellery, ensuring that every piece carries a sense of heritage.
Yet, while we honour the artistry of the past, Inês Santos also embraces the future. The rise of modern, progressive design in Portugal has inspired a new wave of creativity—combining timeless techniques with fresh, contemporary perspectives. Our jewellery reflects this blend, marrying the elegance and craftsmanship of tradition with bold, modern aesthetics to create pieces that are both classic and current.
