COOMI JEWELS FIT FOR A GODDESS
 If a goddess were looking for jewelry, where would she look? The answer,
unequivocally, would be Coomi Jewelry. Divine, magical, inspiring,
strong, timeless and visionary - these are some of the words that
leap to mind when you first see Coomi’s work. Inspired by
ancient textile designs, Coomi Bhasin, the Indian jewelry designer
from Mumbai, creates breathtaking rings, earrings, bracelets and
necklaces. Her pieces are an unusual collection of precious and
semi precious gems, rose cut and brilliant diamonds mixed with natural-colored
diamonds. All of the pieces are handmade and one of a kind, created
around a precious, exotic or unique gemstone and inspired by a range
of experiences. One of her creations in white gold and diamonds
was inspired by a piece of antique Spanish lace she came across
while browsing in an antique shop, another by a dancing snake in
rainfall and another by the lights of New York City.
“Wearable art” says Coomi, “is how I like
to think of my designs. I graduated with a textile degree
from university and went on to do my thesis in jewelry. For
me it was one of my most treasured memories. I traveled all
over India learning all about traditional jewelry from different
regions in India.” Coomi has been designing jewelry
for as long as she can remember. “It all begins as an
idea, a vague dream, which takes form, is enhanced and comes
to life through the latest techniques used in the jewelry
trade”. Diverse creative influences are evident in her
work. Inspired primarily by ancient textiles, Coomi's bold
and intricate designs incorporate her love for historic designs
as well as her "nuts & bolts" understanding
of structure. Presenting unusual juxtapositions of precious
and semi-precious stones, Coomi has created a magnificent
and wearable collection of breathtaking jewelry.
Those looking to buy these creations have to wait for an
exhibition like the one at AsiaStore, the exclusive retailer
of Coomi jewelry in New York City. AsiaStore provides a unique
venue for Asian and Asian-American designers to showcase their
work. Coomi Jewelry is a must see and with the holidays around
the corner, the perfect way to make the goddess in your life
feel divine.
