About Us

Our Story

In the past, whenever I wanted to buy jewelry, I used to scroll through Instagram or Pinterest for inspiration. The market was flooded with numerous jewelry brands, offering affordable pieces. However, it was apparent that many of them were poorly crafted and not long-lasting. 

What truly caught my attention were jewelry pieces exhibited behind glass in art museums. These were exquisite designs inspired by ancient times, such as ancient Greece, as well as intricately crafted jewels from various Asian regions. These pieces were often unique and bestowed a sense of identity and influence upon the wearer, as they possessed something truly distinct. Many of them were treasured as family heirlooms. Sadly, in our modern times, such thoughts seldom cross our minds.

Mass production and cheap alternatives have made it easy for us to replace and discard things quickly. Everything we acquire seems short-lived, and our appreciation for what we own fades away. It was this realization that prompted my mother and me to establish a jewelry brand that values quality, craftsmanship, and unique design. We draw inspiration from past eras and diverse cultures to create timeless and captivating pieces, exclusively crafted from high-quality materials. Our aim is to forge jewelry that will endure for generations, emphasizing the wearer's personality and individuality, setting them apart from the crowd in today's world. With these principles in mind, we founded Kaito in 2020.

How do we make
our jewelry?

We craft our jewelry with the utmost care and precision, using the ancient and intricate lost wax carving technique. This age-old method allows us to create unique and beautifully detailed pieces that stand as works of art.

The lost wax carving technique begins with a detailed wax model. This wax model is encased in a heat-resistant mold. When heated, the wax melts and is "lost," leaving behind a cavity. Molten metal is then poured into this cavity, solidifying into the desired shape. After cooling and breaking the mold, the final metal piece is revealed, often requiring finishing touches like polishing or stone setting. This ancient method ensures intricate and precise designs in jewelry and metalwork.
