Design and create aromatic collars, with minimalist and timeless design, in 18k gold and 950 silver. It was from the contemplative encounter of jewelry and design objects with the vast universe of aromatherapy that I created Casa ILHA - a space to feel. Valorizing the biodiversity of Brazil, I went in search of small suppliers, in different regions of the country, who cultivate and extract essential oils, hydrolates and other inputs in a respectful manner with nature. I found native plants, with rich Brazilian aromas and that still carry the stories of their regions and indigenous inhabitants. Within this curation we separate essential oils from 5 biomas of the country and for an aromatic experience, a sensory tour through the smell through the different Brazilian landscapes.
