Paulo and Eliana

"Combining our passions we developed the techniques we use today. We enjoy seeing the surprised expressions of customers, admirers and friends who are fascinated with our work."

Paulo found in Eliana the perfect partner for personal and professional success. "Our art is like us: happy,... multicolored and simple," says Eliana.

"Leaving family and friends in São Paulo to move to Rio de Janeiro was a difficult decision, but we had to do it in order to better develop our art. Now we are happy living in the city that has welcomed us – we have made new friends and have found a public that has received our art.

"When we started, back in São Paulo, we tried to find stores interested in selling our products, and the owner of one of the first shops we encountered realized our potential, but suggested we had much to learn as far as the marketing of our products. She generously gave us our first lesson on how to approach stores.

"In 2003 Paulo was working in handcrafts and I worked for a company. I helped Paulo to craft his designs in the evenings and over weekends. A few years later I was able to leave my job to be entirely dedicated to our craft with our art printed as wall décor and decorative wood boxes.

"We refer to our art as Cosmobola ('cosmic balls') because it features innumerable diminutive balls of ink clustered in high relief in all of our designs. They are like a dynamic representation of the relationship between humans and the cosmos. These cosmic balls can be clustered over such Brazilian images as Christ Redemeer and Sugar Loaf Hill.

"Our plans for the future include promoting our art throughout Brazil and beyond our borders, thus making our dream come true, which is to be able to live off our art, as well as train and employ people interested in learning this art form.

"Our main material is wood, and we're planning on using other materials such as ceramic and metal. Who knows, maybe one day we can even work on walls! We also plan to continuously create new designs and keep surprising our customers.

"We developed this art form inspired by our passion for art. Paulo has always enjoyed designing and I love to paint. Combining our passions we developed the techniques we use today. We enjoy seeing the surprised expressions of customers, admirers and friends who are fascinated with our work.

"Our inspiration comes from everything we have experienced and know, as well as art books and visits to museums. We constantly take courses to learn how to apply our technique to other materials.

"At home, united by arts, chores are divided. Paulo's favorite thing to do is to design, and finds it challenging finding the adequate techniques to apply his designs. I love to paint, glue the tiny balls, and networking to promote our work. I enjoy being in contact with other people, it's always fun and a source of inspiration for new designs. I also find it challenging finding the adequate techniques to apply our designs.

"It gives us a great sense of satisfaction to be able to craft a type of art that is unique and has found great acceptance."

FINDING YOUR SIZE

Take your measurements with the tape measure over your under garments. If your measurements fall between sizes you may prefer the next larger size. Inseam, skirt and dress lengths vary by style and will be listed in the item description. Our sweaters are knit in standard American sizes, however actual measurements vary by style.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

LOW WAIST

Measure around the body approximately 1.5" below the natural waist (above). This is the area where most pants and skirts actually fit.

HIPS

Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of the body approx 7"-8" below the waist.

NECK

Measure around the base of the neck keeping the tape measure comfortably loose.

SLEEVE

Bend elbow slightly and starting at the center back of the neck, measure across the shoulder, to the elbow and down to the wrist.

INSEAM

Our standard inseam length for women is 32" and 34" for men; however inseam measurements will vary slightly by style.

 

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.

UNICEF Market offers triple win pricing, where YOU the consumer, Children from around the world, and Artisans all benefit.

WIN # 1 You Save!

Handmade goods from developing nations usually pass through a series of intermediaries before being purchased by retail consumers. Each of these intermediaries adds cost to the product, and that cost is passed on to the customer.

By skipping steps in the traditional supply chain, you can buy high quality items for less than the regular retail prices.
