Style tip:

Tiger's eye, with its warm shades of brown, gold, and amber, finds its best expression against a neutral background—off-white, beige, light gray, or cream. These tones create a perfect contrast that highlights the richness of the jewel while respecting its natural character.

To stay true to the ethical spirit of Capim Dourado, opt for materials such as linen, soft crepe, or airy cotton. They enhance the garment by adding lightness and refinement.

Terracotta, camel, or bronze tones create a harmonious palette with the ochre of the jewelry. For a sophisticated and modern contrast, try a dark colored piece—navy blue, emerald green, or burgundy—which will subtly highlight the stone.

Such an elegant choker deserves to be highlighted. Opt for updos or half-up styles to show off your neck — a chic low bun, a delicate half-updo, or sleek hair pulled back.

Jewelry made from capim dourado, or "golden grass," is a Brazilian artisanal treasure, created from the native grass of the Jalapão region. Local artisans skillfully weave this natural grass to produce unique pieces, ranging from bracelets to earrings. The distinctive golden hues of these jewels capture the brilliance of the Brazilian sun, adding a touch of nature and elegance to each creation.
