STORY

Welcome to TOMOMI MOTOYAMA JEWELS, I create jewelry with a warm and chatty personality. They love to talk and entertain, making every moment together precious. When you wear them, you are embarking on a journey of self-expression and discovery. These jewels will be your constant reminder of your unique radiance. 

I started making jewelry in the heart of New York, driven by a deep passion for creating one-of-a-kind pieces that are full of love, care and style. I've pursued my jewelry style by using my own hands, since I believe in the power of old traditional craftsmanship which I love and respect, and the beauty of imperfections and uniqueness. This adventure creates the character and history of the jewelry, telling a captivating story. 

I mostly work with fine metals and precious and semi precious natural gemstones but I like to adventure to use any materials as long as I am pleased with my design concepts and ethic.

< Some background >

Born in Tokyo, Tomomi's artistic journey began from an early age, enveloping her in an ever-present world of creation. With a BFA in graphic design from Tama Art University she worked for a kids apparel company as a graphic designer and a dog boutique as an accessory designer. 

Moving to NYC and working closely with New York based fine jewelers and masters she has obtained traditional metal craftsmanship. 

With those experiences her design aesthetic evolved to be refined, unique and a little bit amusing. Her jewels are often versatile- they have movements and other functions to entertain the wearer. 

She also loves nature- road trips in nature and wildlife which are the principal inspiration for her jewelry creation.
