Abike Balogun is one of the leading Jewellery Merchants
in Lagos.
She sells exquisite pieces. She is good at what she does and she has a sweet
and pleasant personality that will endear you to her.
How did she get into the business? She told City
People Online Fashion and Beauty Magazine recently her story.
I started jewellery business by making myself.
Ever since I was young I had always been creative, I enjoyed making dresses
from patterns, cross stitching, arts & crafts amongst other things. I did
all this by following step by step instructions from a magazine or book....... I
would look at an article and say to myself...... “I can do that!” and I did”.
In 2004, out of boredom, I was reading a beading magazine with
instructions on how to make a certain piece and again I said to myself .....“I
can do that”, and again I did! With a few hits & misses, I mastered the art
of jewellery
making
(yes! I was self-taught) and hence the birth of my first business “Jewellery
by Abike”. I would use 14 carat gold with semi-precious stones to make
my jewelry pieces. However I didn’t want to limit myself to the high end of the
market alone. I therefore thought of
being a jewellery retailer and hence the birth of 3dees Gems in 2015
where we then became a Purveyor of high end quality jewellery like Brazilian
Jewellery, genuine crystals and cubic zirconia.
The name derived from the fact
that my 3 children’s names starts with the letter ‘D’. My aim was to sell
jewelry to everyone, chic & beautiful jewelry at affordable prices, that’s our
number one priority. I believe you really don’t have to break the bank to wear
exquisite & elegant pieces.
I travel around the world to source for the best for our
customers; Pieces that can be worn again and again!
I approach everything
with abundant amount of ‘joie de vivre’. If it’s not fun, it’s simply not worth
doing.
