— The YUAN YI Manifesto
YUAN YI was founded in 2024 by a designer with a simple belief: that original design shouldn't be a luxury reserved for the few.
The name YUAN YI draws from Chinese characters — 苑 (Yuàn), a garden where art blooms, and 艺 (Yì), the mastery of craft. Together, they represent our promise: a space where creativity meets precision, where every piece is both a work of art and a testament to skilled hands.
What started as sketches on a desk in a small apartment has grown into a brand trusted by thousands. But our philosophy remains unchanged: every piece must earn its place — through original design, honest materials, and the quiet confidence of something made with care.
The very first YUAN YI piece was drawn on a napkin — a moonstone ring that became the Moonlight Ring, our bestseller to this day.
Moonstone and Geometric collections launched together. Within 3 weeks, initial inventory sold out.
Partnered with master silversmiths preserving traditional hand-engraving techniques. A bridge between ancient craft and modern design.
Reached 10,000 orders with 98% satisfaction. Elements collection launched with ethically sourced gemstones.
Today, YUAN YI ships to over 30 countries. Small team, big heart, same principles.
No molds or factory templates. Every piece begins as an original hand-drawn sketch.
Every material disclosed and independently certified. What you see is what you get.
Recycled metals, conflict-free stones, minimal packaging, and carbon-neutral shipping.

Every YUAN YI piece journeys through four stages — from a spark of inspiration to a finished piece ready for its new home.
Every YUAN YI piece begins as a hand-drawn sketch. Our team draws inspiration from architecture, nature, art, and the quiet beauty of everyday moments.
The winning sketch is translated into a precise 3D model, perfecting every angle and dimension before any material is touched.
Master artisans bring the design to life using traditional techniques — casting, filing, soldering, and polishing by hand.
Every piece undergoes three rounds of rigorous inspection before being lovingly packed. The unboxing should be as beautiful as the jewelry.
Transparency is the foundation of trust. Here's exactly what we use.
92.5% pure silver. Hypoallergenic, tarnish-resistant, fully recyclable. Every piece hallmarked.
Thick 18K gold electroplating — 3x thicker than industry standard. Lasting shine without fading.
