Waneska Shelynne born in Brazil.

She graduated in Business Management in 2001. As an administrator, she worked in many Brazilian companies.

Between 2005 and 2008 she leaves Brazil and moved to Angola. The experience with the African culture and the people interaction was so rich and grateful to her. This time was very important to her experience with jewelry in the future. 

She returned home in 2008 and she started new jobs.

In 2012 she met her husband, a Portuguese architect working in Brazil.  

In 2015 she married in Portugal and she decided to live there.  

Motivated by the new culture life and new experiences, as a hobby, she started to make her own jewelry with other perspectives. Using, for example, raw materials such as natural stones, glass beads, wood pieces, pearls and leather combined with embroidery techniques she discovered a new and unique jewelry style. Her friends started to make orders and her hobby become a new job with true passion.

In 2018 she decided to study Jewelry in Porto/Portugal.

Currently, she has an atelier in Aveiro/Portugal where she works and shows her unique jewelry for people from all of the world.
