- Unique Properties
- The Snowflake and Venus Collection is an innovative collection that showcases the endless possibilities that come with superior stone-setting techniques and precise hand-carving skills. The designers are able to assemble each precisely cut diamond in a way that imitates diamonds rated at 1 carat and above, yet priced at a significantly lower cost for the customer.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Our goal is to have innovative designs that are also versatile for customization when it came to sizing. For the fitting, we use the inside circumference measurement of our customers in order to provide the perfect fit. For the diamond centerpiece, we provide a wide range of Snowflake sizing to each personal preference. Round 0.40 ct. - 3.00 ct. Marquise, heart, princess cut, oval, pear, emerald 0.75 ct. - 2.00 ct.

- Production Technology
- The design inspiration of this collection required pinpoint accuracy when it came to the sizing of every individual diamond as they needed to fit perfectly to build and mimic diamonds rated at 1 carat and above. The true production technology came down to superior hard-carving skills, rather than the machine.
- Design Challenge
- The arrangement of the diamonds was a big challenge as we needed to mimic a larger diamond with the same visual appeal. As the collection featured various designs, we had to come up with diamond sizes and shapes that would be versatile enough to be pieced together and used throughout the collection.
- Research
- To overcome the high price-performance ratio of jewellery pieces, we knew that the brilliance and the reflection of diamonds themselves were an important element of the research. The reflection of six same-sized diamonds together produces a stunning visual that closely mimics 1-carat diamonds. In order to fill the crevices of the six diamonds to ultimately achieve the same effect, we required smaller diamonds-bringing the total to 13 diamonds but at a lower cost than using a single 1-carat diamond.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the unique and multifaceted structures of snowflakes, Snowflake Collection features tightly packed diamonds that prove there are strength and beauty in numbers-much like the accumulation of snowflakes. The Venus Collection is a gorgeous extension of The Snowflake. This collection features a special design that uses natural yellow diamonds encircled by white diamonds.
- Project Duration
- This project began in 2017 in Hong Kong, and although it was realized the same year, we continue to draw inspiration from nature in order to continuously improve and expand on the collection.
- Operation Flow
- This collection features an elegant design of gold jewellery with a stunning 1-carat diamond imitation. With our advanced techniques and hard-carving skills, the imitation design is constructed by 13 different-sized-and-shaped diamonds precisely mounted on the jewellery. The diamonds can also be rearranged to create different shapes, allowing for an interactive experience with the customer to choose their favourite jewellery.
