About

All pieces are handcrafted and signed, with a high-end finish. The sculpted jewelry is created with comfort and functionality in mind. The surfaces are either hand painted or embedded with illustrated and photographic compositions created in the studio.

Moshiko, a master of his craft, has been working with polymers and precious metals for over 20 years. He is a self taught artist. Inspired as a child by the metal workshop his father built in their backyard, his exposure to the craft of the silversmith began in the valley of Katmandu. Moon & Sun, the family of silversmiths working for the king of Nepal, inspired Moshiko by showing him the art of heating metal with ones own breath.

Since then, Moshiko has worked in fine jewelry workshops as in-house designer
and prototype maker, and crafting gold and diamonds for high-end manufacturers (1990-1995).
During that period he also studied glass blowing with Rika, a master glass blower,
and trained in traditional North African jewelry crafting.

Moshiko is a sponsored artist of AIDA

At the beginning of the new millennium Moshiko began investigating platonic polyhedrons,
