Timeless elegance: Edjóia brings the artistry of Fabergé to Portugal


Bridging tradition and innovation to offer collectors a gateway to exquisite craftsmanship and timeless design

Founded in 1985 by Maria Edviges Viegas, Edjóia has become synonymous with fine jewellery.

With boutiques in Quinta do Lago, Almancil, and Vila Vita Parc, in Porches, the jewellery store is the official retailer of luxury brands known for exquisite design and impeccable quality, none more so than Fabergé.

Since 2021, Edjóia’s Quinta do Lago boutique is Portugal’s sole authorised retailer of the legendary jeweller renowned for its unparalleled artistry and heritage, “allowing customers to appreciate and purchase fine jewellery pieces that celebrate art and design”, said António André, partner at Edjóia.

The relationship between Edjóia and Fabergé celebrates the seamless blend of tradition and innovation that continues to captivate lovers of fine jewellery.

Founded in 1842, Fabergé redefined the industry, shifting the focus from diamond-centric trends to intricate, design-led creations infused with colour.

The revival of enamelling and the introduction of luxury features, including the now-iconic Imperial Easter Eggs, cemented Fabergé’s reputation as the world’s foremost artist jeweller.

Today, these masterpieces remain some of the most sought-after treasures, housed in leading museums and private collections around the world.

Edjóia’s role in preserving and showcasing Fabergé’s craftsmanship is reflected in the collections available at its boutique.

Among them, the Emotion line embraces Fabergé’s passion for colour, channelling the spirit of the Fauvist movement, where vivid hues are used as a means of expression.

These pieces, with their painting-like compositions and seemingly spontaneous arrangements of pavé-set gemstones, embody both artistry and emotion, resulting in jewellery that is as daring as it is elegant.

Similarly, the Heritage collection pays homage to Fabergé’s original masterpieces, drawing inspiration from the cultural richness and technical mastery of its historic works. The collection revives time-honoured techniques such as guilloché enamelling, hand-engraving, and the intricate art of engine turning.

These elements, once integral to Fabergé’s Imperial creations, have been reimagined for contemporary collectors who appreciate both tradition and modernity. Signature egg pendants, adorned with luminous enamel, carry within them the surprise elements that define Fabergé’s ethos.

The synergy between Edjóia and Fabergé lies in their shared reverence for craftsmanship and their understanding that jewellery is more than ornamentation; it is an expression of artistry, history, and sentiment.

Through this partnership, Edjóia not only introduces Fabergé’s internationally prestigious and unparalleled creations to the Portuguese market but also reaffirms its own commitment to offering exceptional, rare, and meaningful pieces, as well as “exclusive collections that blend art and contemporary design, resulting in unique jewellery that appeals to both collectors and buyers looking for something distinctive”, explains António André.
