According to the Forbes, a piece of fine jewelry can convey a sense of place through its design, materials, and production techniques. This is certainly the case for MATILDE Jewelry, a sustainable fine jewelry brand that has carved a unique niche in the industry.
Matilde Mourinho was born in Setubal, Portugal, about 45 minutes south of Lisbon. Her passion for making jewelry began in primary school where the precocious entrepreneur got in trouble with teachers for selling her wares to other students.
Now 27 years old and living in London, this pioneering woman’s sense of style, business acumen, and passion for creating sustainable jewelry led to the 2020 launch of her own company —MATILDE—at a time when the ethics of making and wearing fine jewelry were often an afterthought, leading to greenwashing.
