If you’re shopping for fine jewellery in Hong Kong (or anywhere in the world for that matter), then you really can’t do better than the Parisian maison: Cartier. Having created pieces for royals and celebrities since its inception, this house goes beyond its famed watches, crafting eye-catching rings, necklaces, and more in a range of modern and classic designs. We are absolutely obsessed with its sculptural Panthere collection, as well as the minimalistic Juste Un Clou (which we pretty much never take off!), showing Cartier’s versatility when it comes to crafting both simple and avant-garde pieces.

You can trust Cindy with stellar statement pieces as design runs in her family. She was her father’s first apprentice and she paved her own way to create her own masterpieces. Her designs, which often feature nature motifs, are bold and sophisticated with a feminine touch. Each year, Cindy releases a new piece in her Butterfly Brooch collection, and her White Leaf necklace is a wonder with its intricate details and cuts – after all, it is the work of over 6,000 hours of engineering and craft! Her designs have been worn by celebs like Salma Hayek, Amy Adams, Julia Roberts, and Hong Kong’s very own Michelle Yeoh.
