Valeria & Andres
Love Story
In 2012, Valeria was attending Reiki therapy sessions with Yaneth. In one session, Yaneth asked her to tell her who Andrés was in her life. Valeria responded, "I don't know any Andrés." Yaneth replied, "Then he hasn't arrived yet. He is going to be a very important person in your life. He will have a white aura like your brother and your father." Valeria was very intrigued and found it quite beautiful.
Four years later, Valeria moved to Spain for a while. After ending a relationship, she wanted to be alone for some time. When she returned to Colombia, she went to a concert with her mom and, by chance, met some friends who told her they had a cousin who wanted to meet her. Coincidentally, this cousin's name was Andrés.
Andrés had noticed Valeria because he saw her on social media. While living in Spain, Valeria started painting a lot with watercolors and picked up this hobby, which became like therapy for her. "I opened an Instagram account called 'Másquetinta,' where I shared all my creations." It was a kind of blog where Valeria shared everything. By chance, Andrés came across her profile and became interested in the person behind it. He found out that his cousins knew her and asked them to introduce him to her.
On August 22, 2018, Valeria received an invitation from her friends to have dinner with them and their cousin Andrés. They met and got to know each other there. Although they didn’t have many moments to talk that night because they were not alone, Andrés saved Valeria’s phone number and kept reaching out until they went out together. It was something very beautiful, a connection that made them feel as if they had known each other before. The number 22 has been with them since the first day; it became important and recurrent in their lives, and they took it as a positive sign and a good omen for their relationship.

Why They Chose Câpâ for Their Rings
Andrés decided to have the engagement ring made by Câpâ because Valeria loves jewelry, and over time he realized that Câpâ reflected what Valeria is: a designer, inspiring, and creative woman. It was his only and best decision because no piece is the same as another; for him, everything was perfect.
Valeria never expected this surprise; it was something magical and special. She loved the design, the aesthetics, the perfection of the imperfection, and the organic nature reflected in the piece, which makes each one unique. Valeria was delighted that it was from Câpâ, for its essence, for being an authentic brand with a particular style.
Andrés was stressed during the process because Valeria is a girl who values aesthetics and details very much, and he didn’t know if she would like it. For Valeria, Andrés captured something subtle and beautiful in the ring.
