Alegria operates as a not-for-profit company and was created to showcase the work of a diverse and remarkably talented group of artists and craftspeople. Alegria is currently featuring the line of Nilson de Assis, a jewelry designer who lives and works in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Your retailers will love this creative new line. Artisan craftsmanship and superb detail are the mark of each Nilson creation. Individually hand crafted in Brazil, Nilson's organic designs are exquisite and unique. Equally important, Nilson's extraordinary designs have the look of silver at a fraction of the cost.
