Getting to know our designers: Kathy Kamei ~ a McMullen exclusive Q&A
We are such big fans of jewelry designer Kathy Kamei.
Beyond her absolutely gorgeous jewels, she's local to the Bay Area (yay!) and is one of the sweetest ladies we've had the pleasure of meeting. We think you'll agree.

About Kathy Kamei
"The most important thing I have learned to do is to trust my inner
voice," says Kathy Kamei, designer and CEO of the line of jewelry that
bears her name, "and if I can create a piece of jewelry that inspires a
person to break from the pack and celebrate their own uniqueness, that
is the most exciting thing I can ever hope to do in my work."
Kathy, who grew up in Alberta, Canada created her company after a trip she took to Bali with her daughters. "The Balinese are the most beautiful human beings I have ever encountered," says Kamei, whose six-month excursion turned into a nine-year romance with the land. " I had never seen such heart, love, sprit and graciousness expressed in a community."
Before Kamei left the island, she created her line of jewelry. Each piece is crafted by hand in Bali by local artisans and are made of 92.5% solid silver.Kathy, who grew up in Alberta, Canada created her company after a trip she took to Bali with her daughters.

Her two-tone pieces are overlayed with 18K gold vermeil.
Her pieces invite the wearer to imbue them with their own meaning. Kathy believes that the beauty of her work is that it encourages people to seek their own truth.

Q : How do you stay motivated and inspired ?

to create when I am on the back of my horse. My full presence is needed
and when I am clear and focused images,thoughts and shapes come easily.
