About Kokoma

Kokoma makes costume jewelry, and this site is its catalogue set out in full. The range goes wide rather than deep. Brooches carry birds and bees. Fine chains hold a single pendant. Open rings adjust to a finger, hoops and threaders cover the ear, and a short line of body jewelry uses gauges rather than inches.

The pieces share one thing and it is worth naming first. These are not fine jewelry. The metals run to plated brass, copper, stainless steel and sterling silver, and the stones to cubic zirconia, crystal, enamel and simulated pearl. That buys variety at a price where a brooch is a small decision rather than a large one.

The brooches are the heart of the Kokoma lineup. A hummingbird worked in pave stones, a bee with a green crystal body, a dove with an olive branch, a vintage oval with a blue centre stone and a drop below it. People pick a brooch for what it shows, so the motif goes on every card here rather than into a paragraph nobody reads.

The rest of the range answers different questions. A necklace is chosen by length and by what hangs from it. A ring in this catalogue is usually an open band, which means it adjusts rather than being ordered in a size. Earrings are chosen by the post as much as by the look, and the material of that post is the line to read if your ears are difficult.

Body piercing jewelry is a separate matter and we treat it as one. Gauge and material are the two facts that decide whether a piece is usable at all, and both come from the maker's own words. Where a gauge is not stated, the page says so instead of guessing a number that somebody might trust.

The Kokoma approach to colour is simple and it comes from the products rather than from a mood board. Almost everything is gold-toned or silver-toned, with enamel and stones carrying the accent. That is why this site is built on warm paper and brass rather than on the pastel that jewelry sites usually reach for.

We list what the maker states and nothing beyond it. Where a bullet gives a material, the material is on the page. Where it does not, the page stays quiet rather than filling the gap with a plausible word. Prices move, so we refresh ours on a schedule and print the date of the last refresh on one page instead of promising a figure we cannot hold.

There are things this range does not do, and saying them here is cheaper than saying them after a purchase. Plated metal wears: a brass piece worn every day on a hand will show its base within a year, and nothing brings the plating back. Costume stones are set in prong or glue, and a glued stone can be lost. And none of this is hypoallergenic unless the page names the metal that makes it so.

Every piece is bought through our retail partner, and the buttons here open the exact piece you were looking at. Checkout, delivery and returns happen there. What this site is for is the part before that: putting several hundred small things side by side with their metals, stones and motifs, so the choice takes a few minutes rather than an evening of scrolling.

This site is run as the brand's catalogue: the pages are written here, the photographs are the maker's own, and the buying step happens at our retail partner. There is no workshop behind this address and no order desk. What we can help with is what a specification says and what it does not.
