Yuko Matsumura (or Ariko Jewelry) is a professional jewelry designer and diamond setter currently residing in Brooklyn, New York. Her passion for creating unique jewelry began in Tokyo in 2000, when she discovered silver clay, an unusual substance that can be sculpted like clay then fired to become pure silver.  She was so taken with the medium that she studied it intensely and became a certified instructor. 

Yuko’s work is based upon an organic aesthetic that has become her signature style.  Each piece is handmade and hand-finished. Therefore, no two are exactly alike.   Her collections include 18k and 14k gold, platinum, sterling silver, diamonds, sapphires, rubies and semi-precious stones.
