From selection to excellence: for MIMÍ, the pearl is not merely a gem, but a culture.

The story of MIMÍ began in 2000, yet its roots reach deep into the longstanding experience of the Broggian family in the world of gems and pearls. A heritage of knowledge built over more than fifty years in the field, which today translates into direct access to the most carefully chosen sources and a quality standard recognized worldwide. Only 5% of the pearls cultivated globally meet MIMÍ’s rigorous criteria: in shape, luster, surface, color, and harmony.

Every pearl chosen by MIMÍ tells a story of origin, rarity, and perfection. Freshwater, Akoya, and South Sea pearls are selected one by one, in full respect of the most advanced ethical and quality guidelines in the industry. It is no coincidence that the Broggian family has actively contributed to the development of the CIBJO Blue Books, the world’s most recognized standards for the classification of pearls and gem materials. MIMÍ is committed to the principles of transparency and traceability, offering the final client clear and comprehensive information.

In keeping with this approach, every MIMÍ creation is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, indicating the jewel’s code, date, and place of purchase. For jewels containing pearls, we also provide an additional certificate that attests to the type of pearl used (Freshwater, Akoya, South Sea), along with the relevant technical characteristics and best practices for care and maintenance: a thoughtful gesture that reflects MIMÍ’s dedication to the care and culture of the pearl.

MIMÍ’s standards are much more than simple rules: they are the language of excellence. Just as in Japan, where the word “pearl” (真珠, shinju) also evokes the idea of truth and beauty, for MIMÍ every creation is a dialogue between nature and aesthetic vision.

The Art of the Pearl is the heart of our craft: a daily practice made of precise gestures, inherited knowledge, and constant innovation.
