Kai-Yin Lo

Chinese

“To be truly eternal design must be both global and local and both broad and focused. It must also reinvigorate the traditional into the contemporary and then reinterpret it for future generations.”

A designer of style and innovation, Kai-Yin Lo takes the iconic forms of Chinese antiquity and reinvents them in contemporary jewelry that reflects ideas of Chinese culture past and present. Hailed as “one of Asia’s first distinctive international brands,” Kai-Yin Lo is credited with bridging the divide between precious and fashion jewelry, elevating semi-precious stones into the mainstay of jewelry design. Known for her philosophy of balance through imbalance, her pieces conform to the Daoist principle of Ying and Yang, light and shade, fullness and void.
