The Brand

Hoseki Jewelry Art was founded in1996 by Fai Co, a second-generation jeweler. In the 1960’s, Fai’s father set up the first pearl farm in the Philippines, located in Zamboanga, and eventually opened a jewelry store in Hong Kong. As he was growing up, Fai was exposed to pearl farming and jewelry design.

After graduating from college with a degree in Architecture, Fai ventured into different businesses. Most of their harvested pearls were exported abroad, but he ultimately decided to establish a retail outlet – a jewelry store – for the pearls for here in the Philippines. Initially, the core strength of the company was having its own pearl farm, but they eventually diversified into using other materials such as diamonds and colored stones.

For more than two-decades, Hoseki has been designing , manufacturing, retailing fine jewelry. “Hoseki as a firm, as a design house, is focused on making jewelry as an art piece,” says Knoi. Their vision to produce wearable art sets them apart from other jewelry company.

Every piece created by Hoseki is truly one of a kind. Knoi stresses that there is no duplication in the production. “Should there be a desire or a request for duplication, we make it a point that the second piece is still different from the first one, either by including a different stone, or putting a little twist here and there,” he explains. Their clients won’t ever have to worry about wearing the same jewelry as someone else at a party.
