Rainbow of Bijou – Hongjun Chen

« The Rainbow of Bijou project was born from chance encounters, like pearls on a necklace shaped by each past experience, each loved object, and each felt feeling. In this case, I wear them to bring this "Rainbow" creation to life. Guided by the unique colors of natural gemstones and pearls, my approach to creation is frank, raw, sincere, and authentic. Through my current creations, I explore my true essence, without artifice. I hope that each person who owns one of my pieces will find a unique energy and love of their own. »

Lia Lam – Lia Lam

Everything Lia Lam does is driven by the desire to define her own path. Jewelry wasn't always her calling, but she turned her life upside down to achieve it, training at the best schools in London, Rome, and finally Paris. Her desire was to forge a new path. Once she masters an idea or technique, she immediately begins to consider ways to subvert it. Her respect for craftsmanship is inseparable from her desire to explore and experiment. Her philosophy is similar to that of dance, where every movement has impact and meaning.
