Nimo Gems was established by Nike, who studied sales and marketing, together with business administration, plus a "bit of Law". Retailers buy their stones from Nimo Gems. Nike, owner of Nimo Gems, also designs jewellery and retails her own products. The jewellery designs are unusual, and they reflect Nike's travels and experiences in different parts of the world. Two years ago, Nike had an inspiration, which came like a bolt out of the blue, to move into the jewellery industry. She started buying and selling beads and stones. She journeyed to south-east Asia and sourced suppliers. Among the beads and stones sold by Nimo Gems are: lapis, jade, amethyst, shell, rose quarts, crystals, turquoise and many varieties of coral. The jewellery trade is highly competitive. Getting into the trade is not an easy task. First, she sold strands wholesale to those who make jewellery. But Nike has always had a flair for design. Her friends repeatedly encouraged her to produce her own work. She did not pay much attention to their comments. But one day she was inspired and decided to produce her own. She started selling her products to friends and colleagues. Soon the demand grew, which made her realise that she could hold her own in a very competitive trade. Each piece sold by Nimo Gems is carefully handcrafted. Nike is determined to make a difference in the retail world of design jewellery. She constantly strives to produce products that are fresh and new, significantly different from what exists. The products of Nimo Gems reflect a great deal of personal attention to detail and the natural beauty of the earth. Says Nike: "Nimo Gems sells through several outlets in London. Customers can also place orders from the catalogues. If customers want something special, they can contact me directly and I can make something specially for them. They can choose the beads they want or bring outfits they want to match with beads and I will design something for them." Nike's hard work, determination and dedication is paying off. Nimo Gems also has entered markets in Nigeria and America. She has a dedicated network of clients from the West African region. Nimo Gems' original jewellery creations turn a wide variety of gemstones, which come from a network of suppliers in South-east Asia, into wearable art. Says Nike: "To me, jewellery is a passion. I see it as an art form worn by someone. I love working with gemstones and beads to create designs, which make the person who wears them feel really special." As an enterprise, Nimo Gems is based on trust, integrity, sophistication and confidence. Nike is active in community work through her local Church. Please contact Nimo Gems for a product catalogue.
