ABOUT
Discover CINCO fine jewelry from Portugal. Fine Jewelry Collectibles for Life in 925 silver and 18ct gold, defined by clean volumes and intentional details. We gave jewelry its meaning back. We didn't discover anything. We just went back to what jewelry always was — before the world forgets.
OUR FOUNDERS
All our pieces are designed in-house.
Founded and designed by Li Furtado, with a background in geography, the brand carries a singular way of seeing the world — through structures, proportions, and relationships.
This foundation translates into pieces with presence: precise lines, bold volumes, forms that feel inevitable. They don’t follow trends — they create their own language.
There is an intentional tension between delicacy and strength. Between the essential and the striking.
Jewelry that doesn’t seek validation — it claims its space.
CINCO was built on a shared vision — of creating something lasting, with meaning and independence at its core.
Together with Miguel, whose background in business management brought structure to that vision, the brand found both its foundation and its home in Coimbra, Portugal.
For over two decades, they have built this journey side by side — shaping not only a brand, but a way of working rooted in commitment, resilience, and continuity.
Today, CINCO remains a reflection of that balance: between creativity and discipline, instinct and structure, vision and execution.
THE DESIGNS
Founded in 2017, CINCO is an independent design house rooted in a minimalist yet distinctive approach to jewelry.
Each piece is refined yet full of character, created for those who value effortless style without compromising on presence.
We craft demi-fine and fine jewelry using responsibly sourced 925 sterling silver, 18ct gold, and carefully selected precious and semi-precious stones — ensuring a level of quality that is both seen and felt.
Our collections are defined by thoughtful proportions and a sense of permanence, designed to exist beyond seasons.
There is a deep understanding behind every piece — from concept to creation.
Craftsmanship remains at the core of what we do: each design passes through many hands, shaped, refined, and perfected with intention.
Because knowing how to bring an idea to life is, in itself, a form of mastery.
PEOPLE
We work with those who see the world differently — and create for those who do the same.
Over time, this has shaped a close and considered relationship between us and the people we collaborate with.
Each CINCO piece is thoughtfully crafted with the intention of becoming lasting — designed to be worn, kept, and passed on.
We prioritize responsible practices at every stage: using recycled and ethically sourced 925 sterling silver and gold, alongside carefully selected semi-precious materials.
Many of our pieces are made to order, allowing us to reduce waste and produce with greater intention.
Because creating less — but better — is part of the process.
