SPARKLE & SHINE

A Conversation with Coomi

Coomi is a true Renaissance woman, whose creativity and inherent artistic nature have driven her careers as a textile designer, architect, and landscape designer and which now fuels her exquisite jewelry collection that is carried by leading luxury retailers. Coomi's feminine yet powerful lines and motifs, inspired by antiquities and handcrafted in high karat gold, rose-cut diamonds and precious gemstones have garnered industry awards and international acclaim. She is a serious collector of antiquities who often uses actual precious historical artifacts in her jewelry.

Interviewed by Michele Jacobs, Corporate Director of Marketing/Operations Florida for The Forbes Company
