XO, Suzanne Vetillart
From our start in 1981 to today, we've been a jewelry company focused on high-quality, handmade pieces of jewelry made to last a lifetime.
1981
Boma was founded by Boon and Chieko in Seattle, WA. Our first office was located in the historic Pioneer Building on 1st Avenue. Our second office was located on 2nd Avenue in the Belltown neighborhood of Seattle, to which our "Belle Collection" essential designs are named after.
1985
In the early years, our journey to success was defined by our focus on high-quality sterling silver. As we built our own design and manufacturing team, our control on the sourcing, development, and creation of our jewelry has shaped us into the industry leader we are today.
1993
Boma trademarks the Everything Silver Source™ and grows to be one of the top 20 silver jewelry manufacturers in North America.

Boma works with the costume designers from the Disney+ television series, American Born Chinese. The featured necklace was modeled in orange jade and green jade and hand carved by Boma's artisans.
We believe that sustainability begins with crafting high-quality, long-lasting pieces with precious metals that won't end up in landfill. This focus on quality products and materials allows us to work towards a circular, closed loop approach.
