The Quiet Luxury of Malaysia
Co-founded in 2023 by Nur Balqis Hakim (Qis Hakim), conveying her experience of a private jeweller under the mikahsiq brand into building the quiet luxury of Malaysia.
The AVI, our brand signature is inspired from childhood drawings of birds - a connotation of "innocent freedom" adapted into the fineries of precious jewelleries.
You’ll find it everywhere from our boxes and pouches, gemstone-encrusted on a CARATIV, down to tiny engraving on jewellery pieces.

At the age of 13 years old, a small town girl discovers that there is such a thing as a Jewellery Designer. Growing up, she’s always been more fascinated by costume jewelleries over toys, wearable trinkets over polly pockets. But never in her imagination that there’s someone building a career behind them. So, that sounds like the best life she can imagine; designing jewelleries and get paid for it. It’s something she would do for free.
So it was a 13 year old girl’s dream becoming reality when Qis Hakim founded her levidrome namesake brand MIKAHSIQ as a private jeweller in 2017. Started off with family & friends as full-paying clients, she expanded her reach to jewellery collectors, wedding couples and Malaysian VIPs purely through referrals and words of mouth.
MIKAHSIQ BESPOKE – THE BEGINNING
With trays of curated loose gemstones, CAD on the laptop and her eccentric personality, Qis ran a successful bespoke jewellery service for 6 years. Her attention to detail when it comes to personalisation and quality control in materials and craftsmanship makes every piece of mikahsiq jewellery a worthy marking in history.
