Jewelry Classes - Back to the top
As a functioning studio, the main focus of our jewelry making classes is to provide you with the training that you will need to achieve your artistic vision.
Classes for adults run daily from five to seven in the evenings and cost $35. Check the calendar for the exact class, as the schedule can change from week to week. Descriptions of the classes and goals can be found below. All tools are provided except for consumable items and raw material, which can be purchased at the studio.
Kids' Classes
Give your child the opportunity to learn the craft of jewelry making!
Educational experts have long recognized that hands-on learning and goal setting is pivotal in a child's educational development. In our classes, your child will plan a project and then, guided by our experts, practice the skills that will allow them to realize it.
Classes are held after school everyday from 3:00 to 4:00 and then from 4:00 to 5:00 pm.
Open Studio
The studio is available for general use from the hours of 10 in the morning to 3 in the afternoon. Come in and work alongside our artisans, using all of our specialized equipment.
Workshops
Every Wednesday, we offer a special class on an unusual or atypical facet of jewelry.
Let's learn about several gemstones which provide good energy. And then create your own Feng sui jewelry.

Bios - Back to the top
 KiHwa Kwon Gosline, the founder of Studio Bijoux Hawaii, was born and raised in Kyung Ju, South Korea, the historic capital of the thousand-year long Shilla Dynasty. This kingdom is renowned for its many innovations, including the beauty of the jewelry it produced. Growing up in this environment, KiHwa was heavily influenced by these treasures from the past.
When she turned nineteen, KiHwa moved to Seoul, where she spent the first few years of her twenties becoming a computer programmer. But finding the work unfulfilling, she decided that she needed a radical change and so, at the age of twenty-three, she moved the Japan. For the next five years she lived in Toky0, learning the language fluently and eventually graduating from the prestigious Hiko Mizuno College of Jewelry. Here, the passion that had remained undeveloped since childhood began to bloom in earnest.
Determined to learn more, KiHwa made the move to the United States to continue her study of gemology in San Diego. But, like many before her, she arrived here in Hawaii only to fall in love with the islands! Studio Bijoux Hawaii is the fruition of a lifelong dream. We hope that you'll join in it!
 Jay Kwon (no relation to KiHwa except aesthetically) is a native of Seoul. She and KiHwa met at Hiko Mizuno College where Jay, at the age of twenty-four, was already an instructor: a testament to her considerable talents. The winner of numerous design awards, she was asked by KiHwa to help bring Studio Bijoux Hawaii to life. We have been fortunate enough to benefit from her experience and artistic abilities.
