Get to Know

Popnicute (read: pop-knee-cute) wire wrapped jewelry is created by me, Kharisma Ryantori Sommers or Kay for short. The brand Popnicute is uniquely mine, created from long hours of brainstorming. Popnicute is an abbreviation of POPular, uNIque, and CUTE. In this name lays my hopes in becoming popular one day, to always creating unique jewelry and other handicrafts, while being cute as button :3

Popnicute started up in November 2008 when I was still in Indonesia. Love has lead me moved to the USA to be together with my beloved, Steven. Since September 24, 2010, Popnicute has officially moved to USA.

Popnicute is all about being unique. I will be glad providing unique items for unique individuals like you.

While I'm a self taught jewelry artist, I have a Bachelor degree in Visual Communication Design. I strive to give the best for my customers. I love my customers and I will always give my best! What you will always find at Popnicute? High quality handmade jewelry made of unique gemstones wire wrapped in copper and argentium silver. Quality is never to be compromised!! That's a promise.

- ALL ITEMS ARE HANDCRAFTED IN MY CIGARETTE-FREE and ANIMAL-FREE HOUSE -
