Although the Fado singer is passionate about jewellery, Ana Moura X Portugal Jewels is an unexpected collection that came up after the jewellery brand’s invitation. Since last January, together with Portugal Jewels ‘s technical support, experience and knowledge, Ana Moura has had complete freedom to create pieces she had always dreamed of. Inspired by Portugal and its own history, Ana Moura chose stones, refined drawings, approved models and combined styles and sizes, thus creating a collection whose canvas were the traditional Portuguese jewels –Queen's Earrings, Heart of Viana – but reinvented by the Fado singer, who introduced unexpected elements in them, such as patches of contrasting colours and organic elements. "I fell in love with emerald green and ruby-red, colours that symbolize my country, but also the purple colour - a reminder of Prince who continues to inspire me. I love stones and animals like the snake, and it was amazing to be able to mix everything up and end up with a very personal collection», confesses the fado singer. Although the collection is predominantly gold-plated, there are also silver pieces. One of Ana Moura’s favourites is the Heart snake, since it combines the symbolism of The Heart of Viana with two elements she appreciates: the stones and the image of a snake.
