Filigrana or filigree, is an antiquated art found in many cultures. The Portuguese name, filigrana, literally means “thread and grain”, and refers to the fine gold and silver floss used to create the delicate designs. Dating back to Roman times Portuguese filigrana artisans have meticulously soldered and woven the threads to create one-of-a-kind pieces that are among the most intricate in the world. Throughout Portugal and especially in the Northern Minho region, where filigrana originates, traditional folklore dancers still proudly display layer upon layer of filigrana that have been passed down through generations
