Kumihimo is a traditional Japanese braiding art in which multiple threads are carefully interlaced to create strong, decorative cords. At the QC lapidary and jewelry club, members can learn this intricate technique to craft beautiful, handcrafted bracelets and necklaces in a variety of colors and styles.

We invite you to stop by the studio to meet our talented jewelry artists—both experienced and new—and explore our unique creations. You may just find the perfect gift for yourself or someone special. Monthly hours are posted beside the studio door.
