Creating Beauty from Brokenness

Mika Adjustable Rings

Mika is one of our favorite Ishinomaki women who represents so much of what we love about the Nozomi women -- brave, kind, and an amazing mom. Her favorite Nozomi product is the Mika ring; every day she looks beautiful wearing it!  We have two styles of adjustable Mika rings -  silver or gold rim surrounding the treasured pottery piece, or some options feature the hand-shaped piece of pottery mounted on top. Adjustable to fit any size. Silver or gold plated.

Haruna Necklace

“When Haruna found out that this necklace was being named after her, she could hardly contain her joy! Haruna is the beautiful second daughter of one of Nozomi artisans. She loved wearing the first sample that we made, and we are quite sure you will feel equally beautifully with this one-of-a-kind silver necklace.”

Kikuko Organic

Named after a dear Ishinomaki friend who has been a grandma, friend, helper, and chef for many of us. Kikuko works by the sea, mending fishing nets. When she first learned how to make this necklace, her net-mending skills proved helpful as she deftly tied each knot between every bead.

Smooth semi-precious stone beads are hand-knotted by the Nozomi women to create this elegant necklace. One-of-a-kind pottery shard. Silver toggle clasp. Most necklaces are 18”L
