Tavares 1922
For more than a century, Tavares 1922 has shared the ideals of Portuguese metalwork with collectors in its motherland, Europe, and beyond. What began as a humble, family-run jeweler has passed through the hands of several generations, expanding along the way into fine tableware while still operating out of the same Rua da Junqueira address. In its formative years, sailors’ wives would come seeking gold, not only as accessories or heirlooms but as investments in a steadfast commodity during uncertain times. Even today, the casa upholds Portuguese goldsmithing and silversmithing traditions in its curation of silver home accessories, with modern intrigue arriving in the form of found objects—such as seashells—and a trove of inset precious and semi-precious gems.
