Blanca Soares grew in Pelotas, Rio Grande Sul, raised by her visual artist mother and businessman father. Fifteen years ago, already living in São Paulo, she combined the artistic and entrepreneurial talents she inherited from her parents and created her semi-fine jewelry brand, Blanca Leone. At the beginning she only made pieces for the Brazilian retail, then one day she realized there was a whole world to be explored. “I thought, If I’m already established here, why can’t I be there as well?” she pondered. She organized her material, perfected her portfolio, her French, and then she submitted her registration to Bijorhca, a jewelry show held in Paris. From there, she won the world. “France brings many good things.”
