Vanda’s Necklaces
Each of Vanda’s necklaces is individually designed and handmade. No idea is ever repeated, unless specifically requested by a client.
Most of Vanda’s creations are quite large and bold. Her necklaces are, by comparison to her other work, the simplest and smallest designs in her range of bespoke fashion jewellery. However, she can create any item of jewellery in any size, as required.
Any of Vanda’s necklaces can also be made as a brooch or a belt with a similar design concept and feel. Vanda is very flexible and will always find a solution to a client’s particular need. She enjoys challenges and is constantly seeking to break her own boundaries by inventing new ideas that require innovative techniques to bring them to life.
Vanda regularly interprets ideas generated by her clients, within the context of her ‘style’. She relishes the process of working with a client to exchange and explore design possibilities, using her art and imagination to make the client’s wishes come true and create a unique piece of jewellery.
“We’re crazy in love with Lisbon-born jeweller Vanda Leitão, who counts Beyoncé among her A-list fans. Vanda’s gorgeously eclectic neckpieces and brooches use Edwardian photos and tiny vintage perfume bottles all meshed together with lace and beads.”
