A contemporary twist to Singapore’s multi-cultural, heritage stories, our Modern Heirloom line finds meaning and showcases meaningful traditions of various cultures in their entirety.
In 2017, we were blessed with 3 Singapore Fashion Awards. This recognition in our own home ground, has been a catalyst to us looking inwards at our Singapore culture and heritage to convey the stories, values and beliefs through contemporary jewellery that we hope will be passed down, so that our Singapore stories continue to be told.
Our First Collection, Heritage, is inspired by the ideal traditional Chinese family life of four generations living together in harmony and happiness under one roof. Our Second Collection, Star, releasing on 27 July, is influenced by the deep roots of our rich Malay culture in Singapore.
Following the Chinese collection inspired by the Si Dian Jin, the Star collection finds inspiration in the Malay Songket, a luxurious and prestigious traditional fabric hand-woven in silk or cotton and intricately patterned with gold or silver threads, the celebratory garment is commonly donned at festivals and special occasions like weddings.
We took design cues from the most popular motif commonly found on the Songket – the “Bintang Beralih”, which means “Changing Star”. The Songket’s two-stage weaving technique reflects the essence of "Gotong Royong” or “cooperation in a community”. The traditional supplementary weaving technique of interweaving decorative motifs of shiny gold, silver or silk threads into a base fabric is akin to acts of altruism which adorns the fabric of community and contributing to the creation of a strong cultural identity among the people.
We wanted the pieces to feel extra precious - like a heirloom piece that is worth handing down to our loved ones. And we just couldn't resist the fine gems of topaz, moonstone, quartz, and pearls set in silver or 9 karat gold with filigree detailing; reminiscent of the decorative metallic threads of silver or gold intricately woven into the Songket’s base fabric made of natural fibres such as cotton or silk.
We hope that this collection can serve as a reminder of the community spirit of helping your neighbours, rekindling the Kampung Spirit that burns bright in each and everyone of us.
Heirloom pieces are designed to be stackable across iterations, be it the preceding Heritage Collection or future stories that will be inspired by other local cultures, giving you the creative freedom to style it as you wish.
The Star Collection will be released on 27 July.
1. Measure your fingers at the end of day as your finger size will be different at different times of the day.
Fingers tend swell up during the course of the day as your blood pressure rises.
2. Measure your finger size 3 to 4 times to get a more accurate measure.
3. Your fingers might also swell if you are pregnant or if you are on medication. Take this into account when measuring your fingers.
Here are some tips on how you can measure your finger:
First, cut a cardboard strip measuring 0.5cm wide and 15cm long.
Then, wrap the cardboard around the finger to be sized.
Once it’s done, slide the cardboard up to the knuckle, as the ring must be sized large enough to able to slip off and on, over the knuckle.
Next, use a pen to mark on the cardboard where the long end overlaps.
Measure the mark from the end of the length of paper or string with a ruler.
Locate your ring size by locating your measurement against our size chart.
Should the measurement falls in between two sizes, we recommend that you choose the larger size.
