What is the meaning behind the name RAI?
R.A.I stands for Rise Above It

What is the story behind the creation of RAI Jewelry?
RAI Jewelry was founded by Olamide James with the intention to remind the modern woman of her power, strength and beauty. My intention was to empower women to rise above any challenge or achieve any goal she desires. The latter is encouraged by our statement and unique designs. Wearing the pieces should encourage you to step out of your comfort zone.

Where does RAI Jewelry gain inspiration for their beautiful designs?
RAI’s main focus is to design bold, statement and unusual pieces which are shown through the irregular shapes, lines and textures of our jewelry. A lot of inspiration comes from the renaissance period and is also baroque inspired.
