Co-Founder & Lead Designer
Iris
Iris begins each design with a personal question: would I want to wear this through the different parts of my day?
Piercer-founded. Woman-owned.
We’re piercers-turned-designers, bringing thoughtful materials and personal style into the same conversation.
Why Oumo exists
We didn’t start with a business idea.
We started with a problem we had both been living with: jewelry that looked lovely, but didn’t feel right for our everyday lives.
We wanted thoughtful materials, considered engineering and genuinely good design to exist in the same piece, at a price that felt within reach. So we built Oumo.
“The metal in your ear should love you back. That’s the whole idea. Everything else follows from that.”
The people behind Oumo
Meet Iris & Vivi.
Co-Founder & Operations
Vivi
Vivi builds the systems behind the pieces: the supplier relationships, the orders and the care that turns an idea into an everyday experience.
How we got here
One idea. A growing story.
2022
The beginning
A shared frustration with everyday jewelry becomes the idea for something different.

The first sketches
Two friends, a notebook and the first flatback designs.

The first chapter
Oumo launches, with personal thank-you notes and a community beginning to take shape.

Still founder-led
A growing team and community, with Iris and Vivi still shaping what comes next.
The details we care about
Thought through, from the start.
01 / Materials
Know what you’re choosing.
Our titanium jewelry collection includes pieces specified as ASTM F136. We explain materials and finishes at product level, so you can look beyond a name.
02 / Engineering
A closure that makes sense.
Internally threaded and threadless designs offer different ways to wear and change your jewelry. Our guides explain the mechanism for each type.
03 / Fit
Small dimensions matter.
Post length, gauge, ring diameter and placement all shape how a piece sits. Flatbacks are part of our collection, alongside other jewelry styles.
04 / Design
A little detail. A lot of you.
Shapes, stones and finishes make room for your own point of view, from a single stud to a layered ear.
05 / People
A brand with people behind it.
Iris and Vivi share the design thinking, practical guidance and everyday work behind Oumo.
Tested with care. Sourced with accountability.
We randomly select samples from the titanium jewelry we actually sell, supplied by our manufacturing partners, for independent third-party testing. When we change manufacturers, we arrange new sample testing.
Our SGS composition report records that the tested sample met the ASTM F136 chemical-composition requirements stated in that report. Each report identifies the sample and scope tested.
A personal idea, shared around the world.
Iris and Vivi lead a team across time zones, bringing Oumo to customers around the world.
Our early name was Ohmo Jewelry. You may still see it on older social channels — the same brand story, now under Oumo Jewelry.
