The creative seeds for YEWN were sown five thousand years ago in China, and they are brought to fruition today, as Dickson Yewn, YEWN's creative director, executes contemporary jewelry designs carrying the fineness and beauty of China's cultural heritage.
"YEWN" is a play on words ??it is not only Dickson's family name, but also a homonym for "origins", "cloud" and "luck" in Chinese. Good fortune and auspicious concepts are always central to Chinese philosophy and culture, so are the unique Chinese esthetiques which are represented in many different forms of decorative arts in China.
In 2011, YEWN has become the first contemporary Chinese luxury jewelry brand chosen by the American First Lady. Michelle Obama was seen wearing YEWN's iconic Lattice Ring while waiting with her husband for the arrival of the Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. |
