created by two jewelry lovers to share their love of shiny things, molimo was born both to express ourselves creatively and help address the need for sustainability in the jewelry industry.

molimo vintage is our curated collection of estate, vintage, and antique pieces.

studio molimo is our collection of pieces designed and inspired by our Congolese and Chinese heritage, and the common threads we've found in our different cultures. 

our backgrounds have helped us witness both the positive cultural influences that fine jewelry played in our lives, but also exposed us to the socio-environmental harm caused by the exploitation of miners. our pieces are made with an effort to minimize that harm, using materials that are sourced responsibly. 

each piece of vintage jewelry we offer is unique and rich in history- in a similar vein to how oral tradition once determined how society passed down values and traditions from one generation to the next, these vintage pieces represent moments and memories or people that we cherish and attach to these times. we hope for the same with our designs as well- that they will be passed down, loved and cherished.
