Malaysian jewellery brands are so underrated. I mean, elegance, luxury, style – you name it, they have it. If you only purchase high-end jewellery, sorry to break it to you girl, but you’re missing out on a lot here. Malaysian jewellery brands aren’t only affordable, but also really stylish and aesthetically pleasing. There’s a jewellery item for every occasion.
Here are a few of the best homegrown labels you should get to know better:
THE STRAITS FINERY
Fine as heck! This amazing local jewellery brand was founded by Foo Chia Chern and Amira Yahaya. Specialising in 14k gold creations that are minimal, the brand’s jewellery is perfect for layering and stacking. If you love wearing rings on every finger and choking your neck with stacked necklaces, then you have to check out their collections. A wide range of jewellery that does not use stones – pretty rare for a jewellery brand – their designs are mostly geometric and scream subtle elegance, which is why you can be creative and stack them up however you like.
This brand is also eco-conscious, as they custom-make packaging that is environmentally friendly. A brand that cares about nature, The Straits Finery has an amazing selection of jewellery made in Malaysia. PERFECT!
VLT
HOLY HELL! The collections from this brand are just GORGEOUS! VLT offers both daily wear accessories and fancy designs that are evening-appropriate. VLT, which stands for Vault, by the way, has two different sets of jewellery for both the minimal girls and the fancy ladies. The Essentia Collection is based on minimalistic chic, whereas the Prive Collection is more towards luxurious jewellery that have the power to elevate your look. Their jewellery collections can either be worn on their own (cause they’re freakin fabulous) or you can stack them up. VLT has an array of jewels that are made with freshwater pearls, diamonds and coloured gemstones.
‘KIN
‘KIN is a jewellery brand that connects costume jewellery and fine jewellery with its demi-fine collection. Items from this brand are made of 925 sterling silver with Rhodium plates and 18k gold vermeil. If you’re a fan of hoop earrings, go check out their website, cause they have a vast collection of hoops that I bet you’d like to be hooked on.
YUKIMOTO
If you’re a pearl girl and you need a pearl for every occasion then this is your pearl paradise. This jewellery brand, being new to the industry, crafts items from stones like pearls and jades using contemporary designs for both men and women. The idea behind their jewellery is to promote and instill love and affection. So, basically, they have really elegant pieces for couples, friends, families, and especially, yourself. Forget buying for everybody else, get some jewellery for you, honey. Love yourself with Yukimoto!
SELBERAN
A collaboration between Royal Selangor and European Master Jewellers in 1973, Selberan is a brand that creates 18k gold and diamond pieces with the finest craftsmanship. Due to its western influence, collections are a fascinating mix of exotic and local culture. For all you girls out there who love the bling, this is meant for you. Here’s some dope news: Selberan was given the royal seal of approval after it was entrusted with the refitting of the Sultan of Selangor’s coronation crown back in 2003.
