A Passion for Interiors and Hosting
"I have always dreamed of creating a brand that offers beautiful, unique products for everyday life."
Raquel Souza | Founder of Valsa Home
About
Nice to meet you
I’m Raquel Souza, a Brazilian living in Lisbon. When I moved to Portugal in 2021, I immersed myself in the country’s rich artisanal culture, visiting artisans and learning about their craft. That journey inspired me to combine my passion for hosting with Portugal’s incredible ceramic heritage—and that’s how Valsa Home was born.
HONORING TRADITION WITH A MODERN TOUCH
While I’ve always admired the care and uniqueness that goes into artisanal pieces, I wanted to step away from traditional patterns and bring something fresh and contemporary to the tableware world.
THE INSPIRATION
My warm and vibrant Brazilian roots influence everything I create, and I always design with the modern host in mind. I know they want a beautiful table but also need things to be versatile, which is why most of our products can be mixed and matched, making them perfect for any occasion.
FOR HOSTS, BY A HOST.
