Yellow gold and uncut quartz rings Adriana Da Riva Currently practising as an acclaimed architect (current clients include Balenciaga and Tom Ford) it is no surprise Da Riva's jewellery is modern and graphic. Aside from placing large gems in minimal architectural settings, her signature is the ability to dismantle or add to her jewellery to change its look and function. The Sirius ring is an award-winning example of this. www.adrianadariva.com.br
巴西拥有丰富的自然资源,因此成为珠宝人才的温床也就不足为奇了。毕竟,第一批探险家给米纳斯吉拉斯州起了一个名字(葡萄牙语是“一般矿藏”的意思),因为它出产了大量的宝石。可以理解的是,彩色石头是大多数设计师的审美前沿,尽管使用黄色黄金和钻石不应忽视。

Envolvente earrings Antonio Bernado Undisputedly the leader in fashioning yellow gold into wearable, architectural pieces, Bernardo offers jewellery that is playful but with a grown-up aesthetic. Clever hinges that add movement, interlocking folds of gold, and tactile polished accents are his trademark, while his gallery style flagship store in Ipanema is worth a detour in its own right. www.antoniobernardo.com.br

With seven stores in Brazil, and an international following her style is wide ranging, from architectural shapes to more organic softer pieces. Her adept use of yellow gold with a smattering of diamonds makes her a favourite among regular buyers. www.carlaamorim.com

White agate earrings Daniele Corrêa Corrêa worked at Isabela Capeto before setting up on her own in 2006. Her rings are of particular note, setting large simply cut stones in pared down brushed yellow or white gold. The restrained treatment of large drops of onyx and agate in her earrings impart the pieces with an elegance that are also worth a look. www.danielecorrea.com

Stool ring by Livia Canuto Livia Canuto Working predominantly in silver Livia Canuto has rapidly gained a following among those discerning collectors with a smaller budget. Quirky pieces such as her silver rose earrings, laser cut acrylic earrings and bangles fashioned from riveted cardboard nod to her background in industrial design. Book an appointment at her newly refurbished atelier/workshop in Leblon for a closer look, or to commission one-off pieces. www.liviacanuto.com

Steel necklace with 24kt gold in water and pearls Miriam Mamber A jeweller for over 30 years, Mamber has distinguished herself by working with unusual materials. You’re as likely to see a coffee bean set in gold as you are an ancient coin or piece of fossil. The result is to elevate even the non-precious materials to mini works of art. Our favourites are her necklaces made from preserved native tree fungus edged with gold. www.miriammamber.com.br

Contact ring Odara Tucked away in Ipanema Secret, Odara is the brainchild of two Rio-based designers, who both honed their aesthetic at Antonio Bernardo. With the emphasis on showcasing Brazilian stones from the state of Minas Gerais, each piece is a unique one-off, while the duo site such diverse aesthetics as 16th-century Baroque and 20th-century Modernism as their inspiration. www.odara.art.br
