Atena was born out of a sketch in 1988. A line inspired by the desire to create, to do differently. It was this incessant search for the new that lead Alda Neto to create the Atena brand, from her shop-atelier in Coimbra.
Born into a family linked to jewellery, she inherits the technique, but lends her a unique creative irreverence, which now finds, in the second generation, with Mariana, an architect, a divergent convergence, under which Atena's future is projected.
