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.
