Sobral

With bold and limitless creativity, an innate sense of fashion and a playful artist's soul, designer  Carlos Alberto Sobral converted a homemade production of accessories for hippie fairs in the 70s into one of the largest brands of accessories made from polyester resin in the world, with recognition in national and international fashion.

Sobral transforms earrings, rings, necklaces, bracelets, and a range of decorative objects into small works of art. All of the pieces are unique — produced one by one, with unusual, multicoloured shapes and effects that create patterns that never repeat themselves.

The collections are always limited, which makes some customers eager for new releases, because they become collectors of enchanting and possible art. It is no wonder that the brand has pieces on display in the design wing of the Louvre in Paris and on display at the Brooklyn Museum in New York.

Loved by those seeking distinction, elegance and style, Sobral paraded on the catwalks of São Paulo Fashion Week and Paris Fashion Week as an exclusive accessory for the legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld ; was recommended by Oprah Winfrey ; worn by megastar Beyoncé , and shone in looks by wonderful Brazilian women such as  Glória Pires, Fátima Bernardes, Fernanda Montenegro, Sabrina Sato, Adriane Galisteu, Vera Fisher, Vanessa da Mata and Taís Araújo .

Some say that wearing a Sobral piece gives women the same power as men wearing a tie. Perhaps this is why former British Prime Minister Theresa May was often photographed at important political events wearing a Sobral surrounded by men in ties from all over the world. If you are a fan of The Great British Bake-Off, one of the head judges, Dame Prue Leith can be seen wearing this collection (as well as another of our fabulous collections Samuel Coraux).

Each Sobral piece is unique, handmade according to a traditional process, and production adheres to ethical principles.

Sobral's creations are constantly under development and new designs are endless.

Sobral artifacts are all laser-inscribed with his signature.

Resin is durable and long-lasting if treated with care. You need to treat your piece of jewellery like a piece of fine china as resin will shatter if knocked or dropped on a hard surface. Resin is not unbreakable, but when treated with love and care, will last forever.
