Wagner and Cassia of Brazil create a statement necklace of swirling capim dourado or “golden grass” bound by golden thread and accented with brown cord. The necklace also features an adjustable cord and pine wood beads. The necklace findings are 18k gold plated brass.
Wagner discovered the beauty of capim dourado or “golden grass” as a young boy when he and his family moved to Ponte Alta do Tocantins in central Brazil, home to Jalapão state park where capim dourado flourishes. The crafting of capim dourado is an art form that has been passed down from parents to their children. Now Wagner and Cassia's four children work with them in the crafting of golden grass jewelry.
