by now, santa has made his way to your homes, and here at CINCO, we're excited to reveal our own special gifts. it's no surprise that everyone at CINCO has chosen to give their loved ones something meaningful from our collection this year.
li furtado, creative director
as you can imagine, CINCO is always my first choice when it comes to gift giving. everyone around me wears CINCO - my mother, mother-in-law, sisters-in-law and even my friends' daughters.
this year, I chose each gift carefully. for my mother, I chose the jodie earrings, engraved with the names of her two sons and two grandchildren. it was a very personal gift, a way for us to always be with her, and yes-she cried. the same was true for my mother-in-law; her reaction was equally emotional.
choosing for my sisters-in-law was more challenging because they're super fashionable and seem to have everything. for the one with a more minimalist and edgy style, I chose the colette bracelet. and for the sister-in-law who loves color and sweet details, I chose the goliath bracelet.
for my friends' daughters, I chose alphabet necklaces with their initials. they loved them.

since I'm surrounded by beautiful pieces every day, it's no surprise that I choose to give several CINCO pieces as gifts at christmas. this year I've already made some choices! some were really easy! for my mother, I chose the filomena earrings because she's a pearl fan. and for my mother-in-law, I picked a jodie necklace with her grandchildren's names engraved on it - I think she'll love it.
for my daughter, who already loves earrings and bracelets, I chose the cute rosie earrings. then for my goddaughter, a teenager full of personality, I'm sure a pair of mini bia earrings would be just right for her. and finally, for my best friend, some norma emerald to match the christmas spirit.

christmas is a time I really enjoy! working at CINCO means I don't have to think too much about presents because everything is beautiful and suitable for every person and style. for my mom, the most special of all, I'd get her a jodie necklace with my name and my brother's name engraved on it, she likes those things (happy face) and also the mini sade earrings that she loves - long, simple earrings!!!
finally, because it's also a piece that I really like and would choose for myself (happy face), for my sisters-in-law I would give them each a little arlo bracelet, because although it's simple, it makes the look even more beautiful!!!

sofia torres, head of design
at CINCO, we understand the power of thoughtful gifts, especially when it comes to the people who mean the most to us... this xmas, I chose some of my favorite pieces. for my grandmother, I chose the rosemere earrings, they're lightweight, minimal, and have that elegant design that suits her perfectly. for my mom, the magda huggies were an obvious choice. they're also lightweight, but add just the right touch to any outfit. I'm especially excited about the jodie earrings for my sister, which I had engraved with a quote that we used to say to each other to remind us that even when we're apart, we're always together. and for my best friend, laura earrings in silver, it had to be a pair of silver earrings. I may be a little suspicious because I work here, but honestly, CINCO pieces make the best timeless gifts.

this christmas is very important to me. it's been a year of many personal achievements and i want to give a gift to the people who have always been by my side, even in the most difficult moments. so I want to show how special they are to me with gifts that I know will be special to them as well. for my mom, the most incredible woman I know, I chose the amina white silver earrings because they are delicate and full of attitude (just like her). I'm sure she'll love them. my grandmother is a classic person, so I couldn't think of a better choice than the marcie earrings. for my other grandmother, who is a little more extravagant, I chose one of my favorite CINCO necklaces: the bia necklace. and for my best friend, the noeud ring is just perfect for her.
