HERE'S MY STORY:
Named after the sky and the sea, I was born and raised on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about art and design.
My interest in jewelry started about the same time that I became curious to learn more about other cultures around the world and what makes us all unique. I embarked on my first adventure traveling through Europe when I turned fifteen, bringing back jewelry that would remind me of my travels—unique pieces I could treasure for years to come.
After graduating from the Ringling School of Art and Design, I continued my travels and relocated to the Bay Area, California. In 2010, I took my love for collecting jewelry to the next level, and began to study jewelry-making. My background in graphic design informed my approach and inspired my signature minimalist aesthetic.
In 2014, I launched Cielomar Jewelry, designing high-quality, minimalist jewelry for modern collectors like me, who value originality and believe that the right jewelry can change the way you feel and present yourself to the world.
Like our Collectors, Cielomar Jewelry continues to evolve and transform, finding new ways to help YOU express yourself through modern fine jewelry and custom designed heirloom pieces.
"When I set off on the journey to find an engagement ring set, I never dreamed of making a custom one. Working with Cielomar, who was patient, insightful, and driven to make my vision a reality, made this process one of the most special things I’ve ever done. I’m beyond thrilled with the rings, and so is the person who will wear them forever. Thank you, Cielomar!" -Tom

"After acquiring a precious family heirloom, I wanted to create something special to gift my mom for her birthday. Cielomar had such a gentle yet invigorating demeanor which made me feel secure in my decision to trust her with my family heirloom. The final product was a beautiful set of stacking rings, simple in design yet unique and full of meaning, that my mom put on and has not taken off since. I am forever grateful to Cielomar for helping me make my mom feel beautiful and loved." - Joanna
