Crafted through carving,

it catches light and reflects it back.

Fully inlaid craftsmanship.

All our past gold enamel pieces

—

were solid, hand-painted with color.

But this hot air balloon

—

is something else.

Airy. Weightless.

Handcrafted.

Brushed. Gold. Lines.

 A breath of gold in motion.

Exactly.

There’s also one in white enamel.

🤍

In my everyday moments,

I often wear both —

blue and white,

stacked together.

This kind of companion piece —

layers with any look.

Truth be told, Teases, as Asia’s leading

private collection curator,

I never favor pearls that feel overly grand.

"Unspoken / Subtle / Noble."

*

“Thickness is a kind of fortune.”

And yet

—

I asked for it to be made small.

(Which takes even more skill.)

To hold within it

a hidden meaning.

Quiet.

Small.

Steady, noble grace

—

that is a woman’s true fortune.

Grace. Fortune.

How could a life like that

not be beautiful,

not be joyful?

VLOGs from New York auctions

to life in California.

“Every time you see me in pearls

—

it’s always, only, this pair.”

Truth is—

as collectors of fine objects,

we’ve handled pearls

with no price ceiling.

I never loved pearls that felt too grand.

The true essence of a pearl is this:

“So noble,

 it softens the heart.”

when I got married

on Long Island, New York—

it was this very pair.

As you see—

I’ve always chosen

this size,

this shape,

this perfect round pearl

for the quietest,

most personal moments.

And only this.

These pearls measure

7.5mm–8mm

—

perfect for Eastern features.

Japanese saltwater pearls,

each one certified.

*

Earring posts —

solid gold / 18K.

That soft, glowing skin-luster

—

best shown in a phone photo.

(All are natural saltwater pearls.
Each pair, each pearl, will differ slightly)

Just like the year my mother took me to Kyoto

to choose my very first pearls

—

She taught me this:

“Jewelry near the face

should lift your complexion.”

“Never let it steal

the natural light from your skin.”

“A fine, true round pearl

will bring a flush to the face—

 like elegance, born from within.”

*

Better to look right here,

in the photos on my phone.

Just life. Just daily light.

A meticulous recreation of

a small jewel once owned by

Empress Joséphine

—

exhibited at Place Vendôme, Paris,

The smaller the jewel,

the harder to craft.

Yet

I insisted on creating this limited batch.

Little piece fine jewel.

So! Very! Sparkling!

Before Joséphine’s legend, 

before her Chaumet tiaras

—

when she was not yet empress,

still just a girl—

few knew the quiet truth within:

“That gentle girl at heart

—she never left.”

Rarely does antique jewelry feel

so right for a modern, minimalist look

—

yet still carry a sense of unique elegance.

Small, but never flat.

3D dimensional!

 "Every side has detail."

In every season

—

from spring and summer to the dark,

muted depths of autumn and winter

a captivating sparkle emerges.

The diamond bow pendant is removable
