✨ Vivianto — A Story behind the name ✨
Born to an entrepreneurial father and growing up watching him work ignited in me the desire to create something of my own.
I founded Vivianto with purpose — and I’m proud to say that the name carries deep meaning.
Vivianto is a combination of Vi for Vivian, Vi for Vinícius, and Anto for Antonia — my children, the heart of my inspiration.
The idea for Vivianto was born after a family trip to Herkimer in 2022, New York, where my husband took us to visit a mining site.
It was my first time seeing raw gemstones within the rocks — a moment that left me in awe. When we returned home, I felt a strong pull to follow my passion for gemstones, purchase my own, and begin creating jewelry.
My first pieces were handcrafted with the help of my children. I saw in them the same excitement and curiosity that I felt, and I realized this was an opportunity to teach them values — teamwork, patience, respect for others’ opinions, and perseverance.
Vivianto is not just my creation; it belongs to us.
Both of my children are involved — Vinny helps organize my workspace and collects payments during our pop-up events, while Antonia, inspired by me, has created beautiful bracelets on her own.
Some of her designs are featured on Vivianto’s online store under Antonia by Vivianto, a special collection celebrating the creativity and joy of childhood.
“Every piece from Antonia tells a story of love, creativity, and shared moments between mother and child.”
Antonia by Vivianto encourages mothers and daughters to express themselves through color and design, while cherishing the magic of handmade jewelry.
I like to think that my inspiration has sparked her passion for jewelry too — and that together, we’re building a legacy of love, creativity, and meaning.
