It all began as a creative exchange between two sisters living on different continents — one in Brazil and the other in Portugal — and evolved into an accessories brand that now wins hearts around the world. Luciana Bosqueiro, the artisan and creative soul behind TRA SORELLE, along with her partner in Ericeira, Vanessa Bosqueiro, created more than just handmade jewelry: they crafted simple, elegant pieces using natural stones and no metals, inspired by their Italian roots — the name TRA SORELLE means “between sisters” in Italian.
The project grew organically, starting from a small home studio and expanding into markets and retail shops. Along the way, collaborations with local photographers and designers helped refine and elevate the brand’s visual identity, giving it a new aesthetic and emotional resonance. In 2024, TRA SORELLE took another significant step by incorporating freshwater pearls into its pieces, positioning itself not only as a creator of bold accessories but also as a maker of natural jewelry.
More than just a conscious fashion project, TRA SORELLE is a manifesto in the form of accessories. Sustainability is at the brand’s core: no metal zippers, 100% cotton bags, and a constant care for the environment and the people who wear each piece, all of this influenced by the brand’s muse and model, Valentina Bosqueiro, an environmental engineer with a master’s degree in marine sciences. The brand takes pride in offering more than just products — it delivers a story filled with affection, collaboration, and authenticity — reflection of a Brazilian soul with an Italian accent and a Portuguese heart.
