I am a multifaceted maven with jewelry artisan/designer on the marquee. I am self taught and have attended a few professional workshops along the way.
I love working with metals, especially healing copper, as well as recycled materials; which I use whenever possible since I am a loyal supporter of Mother nature
Prior to becoming a jewelry artisan/designer I worked professionally as a microbiologist at the Faculty of Medicine in my homeland of Mozambique.
Dabanga through Dabanga Jewelry supports many fundraising efforts, especially those linked to Autism and female empowerment
My work is an eclectic fusion of world cultures that goes back in time to connect the past to the present, transforming metal, pearls, turquoise and coral and recycled material into jewelry designs so raw and real you can feel their earthy vibrations.
The metals are patinated to give an ancient look, the color and pattern variations are characteristics of this process, the complimentary embellishments are especially chosen to complete this look.
I design for those of you that like unique & colorful jewelry pieces and have your own distinctive style… are you one of those people? if so you’ve come to the right place and I’m happy to make the connection.
