Gondomar
Character and Identity: "The City of Gold" – the capital of filigree (work of thin gold threads). An ancient craft passed down from generation to generation.
National Role: The main source of traditional gold jewelry in Portugal. Every bride and groom wears jewelry from Gondomar.
Historical Development: The tradition began in the 17th-18th centuries when gold from Brazil arrived at the port of Porto. Artisans developed unique techniques that were passed down through families.
Interesting Facts: Filigree artists work with fine gold threads like hair and create remarkably intricate designs. The profession is at risk of extinction as fewer young people are interested in learning it.
