The Maison

It all began with a thread

A thread in a woman's hand, on a veranda in Macapá, at the far north of Brazil. No business plan, no collection — only a gesture repeated until it became form.

Origin

Amapá

Fio e Areia was born in Amapá, where the Amazon meets the Atlantic and the Equator crosses the city. A place of vertical light, dense humidity and slow time — three things present inside every piece that leaves here.

The maison grew from the inside out: first the hands of local artisans, then the name, then the clients — today spread across the United States, Europe and the Middle East. The geography was never diluted to please an international market. The opposite is true: it is Amapá that travels.

We work in limited production because there is no other honest way to work. Each piece is recorded, numbered and finished by a single artisan, from the first to the last knot.

The three collections

The maison does not work by season. It works by temperature. Three collections, three intensities of light.

BRISA

Day · resort

High sun and wind on the veranda. Light crochet, tones of sand, ivory and pearl. This is the collection of free movement — from the sea to lunch, without changing.

ST★RLIGHT

Night · appearance

When the piece must be seen. Hand embroidery, crystals applied one by one, calculated transparency. This is the collection for stage, red carpet and summer dinner.

THÉRA

Made to measure · unique piece

The apex of the maison. One piece, one client, one body. Designed in direct conversation with the atelier, built on your measurements and never repeated. THÉRA never enters stock.
