INHERITANCE OF JOY NECKLACE | 2023
Fealofani launched her highly anticipated solo exhibition ‘Shrunken Treasures’ in 2018, where she curated intricate miniature sceneries elevated by sound, scent, and taste elements to feature her jewelry collection in a ‘sold-out’ whimsical event. During the mandatory lockdown (COVID-19) in 2020, Fealofani wanted to bring joy in a time of uncertainty, so she showcased her jewelry collection ‘Habitat’ as a one-hour live broadcast on YouTube. Each guest was sent a package in the mail, where surprise edible and scented elements were unwrapped with each jewelry piece revealed on the virtual tour.
TRIBAL BEAUTY EARRINGS | 2023
In August 2023, Fealofani inaugurated an ambitious five-year exhibition series ‘ELEMENTO’ with photographer Cesar Cueva (inspired by matter and energy flow) to celebrate their individual art forms. Chapter two is now slated for the end of 2024, where Fealofani will exhibit her next collection inspired by her birthplace, Aotearoa (New Zealand).

“As a jewelry designer, my aim is to create beautiful pieces that express my love of storytelling.
After working in the jewelry industry for almost three decades, I have learned the importance of scale, perspective, color, and form. I choose each gemstone like paint on a canvas, then use metal in my final brushstrokes to bring the piece together.”

“My personal style celebrates feminine beauty with an edge.
As a creative, I believe jewelry is talismanic. I love creating bespoke pieces not only to embellish but, most importantly, to empower those who wear them. How a woman ‘feels’ when they wear my pieces is so important to me, where my intention is for them to feel both beautiful AND powerful!
No matter what my heart chooses to create, everything is unique in nature and carefully measured by instinct.”
