Lelamooi
Lelamooi founder Kristen Hawkes spent many years honing her craft as a painter/fine artist, before launching lelamooi. The Sanskrit translation for lela (leela) is "divine stories” . The word mooi means "beautiful" in Croatian. The name captures the essence of these specialty handmade pieces. lelamooi brings together a passion for creativity and fine art, a love of life’s mysteries and magic and a desire to serve others. Each piece is hand-crafted by master metalsmith's through the art of lost-wax casting. At lelamooi a lot of love and detail goes into each piece, from the first sketch to the final polish. We deliberately partner with eco-conscious gem suppliers and old-world inspired master metalsmith's, who support the lelamooi vision. From our hands to yours, it’s all about good vibes! Every piece of jewelry is individually hand-crafted in Northern California.
