What makes Blumera unique?
Blumera transforms traditional craftsmanship into timeless expressions of beauty and spirit.
Many Blumera creations originate from the paintings of Laurie Blum and are hand-carved under Mehera's direction in sacred spaces, including a temple atelier in Bali. Others are sculpted by master jewelers in Italy using techniques rarely seen in contemporary luxury.
Blumera also carries forward a legacy of craftsmanship through Mehera's family connection to Blumcraft, the historic metalwork company whose work can be found in iconic locations including the White House, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the entrance to the Louvre Pyramid.

What is Sacred Luxury?
Sacred Luxury is Blumera's philosophy that beautiful objects can elevate the human experience.
Rather than creating products that follow trends, Blumera creates meaningful works of he(art) designed to uplift, inspire, and bring beauty into everyday life. Every creation is rooted in exceptional craftsmanship, storytelling, and soul-stirring beauty.
Are Blumera pieces handmade?
Yes.
Blumera creations are made entirely by hand by master artisans. The wood collections are hand-carved in a temple in Bali by a Balinese Priest, who is Blumera's full-time carver, the brass collections are sculpted and finished in Italy, and the silk scarves are woven, printed, and crafted in Lake Como, Italy.
Because of the extensive hand craftsmanship involved, each piece possesses its own unique character.

Who owns Blumera creations?
Blumera collectors include Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Iris Apfel, royalty, and tastemakers.
Lady Gaga has commissioned multiple bespoke pieces, including chandeliers and bedside lamps, and has described her Blumera bag as the most beautiful she owns.
Blumera creations have also been carried to the Met Gala by Emily Ratajkowski, Ciara, Angel Reese, and Janelle Monáe, and have appeared at the GRAMMYs, the Oscars, The Cannes Film Festival, and on most all red carpets around the world.

Many Blumera creations incorporate reclaimed wood, recycled brass, and natural materials. Produced in small batches by master artisans, each piece is made with extraordinary care and designed to endure. Rather than creating disposable luxury, Blumera creates meaningful works of he(art) intended to be treasured and passed down for generations.
