Naomi Gray
Actress by day, jewelry designer by night, Nicole Paggi is a creative force that likes to get down to business. An experienced actress with a business degree, Nicole uses her passion and inspiration in every role she plays, as well as in her business.
As owner and designer of Naomi Gray, Nicole has found the perfect collaboration of design and passion. While working with many talented costume designers, including Patricia Fields (Sex and The City), on acting jobs, Nicole realized the role wardrobe and accessories play into transforming a mood, a feeling, or even a style. With that, her need to create jewelry was sparked, and she began collecting gemstones and hand crafting her own pieces in her dressing room on set breaks.
Naomi Gray was named for her grandmother, who has always been an inspiration, and Nicole hopes that people are inspired by the pieces she creates using her grandmother’s name. Love is a prominent design theme in the line, and Nicole’s wish is that her jewelry can be special pieces that can be shared with loved ones, and passed from generation to generation.
Celebrities such as Tiffani Thiessen, Kelly Ripa, Jessica Alba, Ali Larter, Brooke Shields and Shenae Grimes have been featured wearing Naomi Gray designs in publications such as Us Magazine and In Touch and on television shows including 90210.
From statement pendants and tiny diamond studs, to stackable rings and more, Naomi Gray represents effortless yet meaningful, simple yet beautiful pieces that wearers never want to take off. All can be layered, dressed up or down, and all are special like the women who wear them!
