a virago is a woman who demonstrates exemplary and heroic qualities. The word comes from the Latin word virāgō meaning vigorous from vir meaning "man" or "man-like".
viragos (such as Harriet Tubman) have been fighting battles, standing up for equality, and generally being badasses for centuries; all while being devalued for being too aggressive and strong.
while shopping I invite you to explore a bit of history and feminism.

Summer (she/her) is an Indigenous young woman from Naotkamegwanning First Nations reserve in Northern Ontario, Canada.
Growing up in a household of 5 strong virago women, my interests in jewelry started young. I always made my own necklaces and jewelry and it was a natural transition to start doing it as my own small business! Thank you for checking out one of my favourite hobbies with me and for helping support Vira Jewelry.
Vira Jewelry is dedicated to spreading positivity and support for Women and Gender Diverse/Two-Spirit Peoples.
