About Us
MTOY is a costume jewelry brand that feels like it came out of your grandmother's closet. Its founder, Müge, is a passionate designer living in Istanbul. Painting and creating have always been present in her life. She defines art as a way of life, which is why she thinks it has no end.
Muge started living abroad in the US at the age of 15. She went to an art school in San Francisco right after high school. She moved to Miami 2 years later and got her BA in culinary arts. After working in different countries and traveling a lot, she decided to show her cultural experiences in her design. She grew up with women who loved jewelry. This is one of the reasons why she loves to create timeless jewelry.
MTOY reflects the complementary power of harmony and the differences of contrasts in its design and workmanship. The source of inspiration comes mainly from ethnic structures, nature and architectural objects. Each of the designs is handcrafted by artisans in the historical Grand Bazaar.
