About Us

 MyCleos is a handmade jewelry collection devoted to the beauty and sensuality of bare feet.
 

Designed and handcrafted by Elsa in Lutry, Switzerland, anklets, barefoot sandals, and other accessories arise from a unique handiwork with seeds, beads, seashells, gemstones, Tibetan charms and colorful yarns.

The collection favors the use of organic materials and embodies different "free-spirited" looks — from gypsy to bohemian — evoking tribal, Indian and Tibetan accents.

MyCleos is working with selected suppliers all over the world, most of whom are women who have created their own home-based micro-business. By putting their entrepreneurial skills to the forefront they affirm their role in the economic management of their homes. 

"I grew up in Portugal near the sun, sand and sea. I remember the hot summer days on the Atlantic coast, picking up seashells or decorating my feet with seaweed brought in by the tides. Always barefoot.

A few years later, professional challenges broadened my horizons and gave me opportunities to travel. On a work trip to Switzerland in 2001, I met my husband and since then we have been living with our teeny son in the beautiful city of Lutry on the shores of Lake Geneva.

Passionate about aesthetic detail, I started making jewelry for feet in 2017. MyCleos is the name of my creative universe exclusively dedicated to bare feet: glamorous jewelry which favors organic components and evokes feet ornaments worn by Egyptian and Asian women.

Feet are a beautiful part of the human body and deserve to be in the spotlight. 
My signature?- I intend to stand out a feminine simplicity and rebel elegance that gives any barefoot look a touch of refinement."
