One of our guiding principles at Ms.Yin | Ms.Yang is only to post about the labels that we love.  So we have been delighted to fall in love with and lust after Lustre a local jewellery label based in Singapore founded back in 2011 by Anaita Thakkar who knows a thing or two about sourcing stunning stones and eye catching jewellery design.  Since her childhood in Bombay, Anaita has always been fascinated by gemstones and on moving to Singapore she noticed that there was a real gap in the market for well designed affordable jewellery.

Each collection is carefully handcrafted using a mix of high quality semi precious stones sourced from India, the gem capital of the world, and designed for the likes of you and me where we crave effortless style. From the more delicate to bold striking designs there is something for everyone where you can really be stylish without trying too hard. Often designs like this come with a hefty price tag but Lustre strives always to deliver an affordable price point without compromising on quality. Ms.Yang knows a good piece of jewellery when she sees it (after years of practice much to the chagrin of Mr.Yang) and when you handle a Lustre piece you can instantly feel the quality of design.

Due to the very nature of the materials used often pieces are unique and one of a kind giving the wearer that lovely feeling of exclusivity but even better at an accessible price point. Pieces are handcrafted in limited numbers and collections are not repeated – so click it before it goes or get ready to feel utter disappointment!

The name Lustre in jewellery terms refers to the way light interacts with the surface of a stone, and implies radiance, gloss, or brilliance which we could all do with a daily dose of in our lives.  But the first four letters also spell lust, yes, that age old phenomenon of desire…lusting after a person or an object.

So what did Ms.Yin and Ms.Yang lust after? We both love to stack so we had a ball stacking the stone cuffs and intermixing the stingray leather gem bracelets with solid bangles. Ms.Yang absolutely adored the showstopping, one of a kind, pendant necklaces. Go bold or go home springs to mind (and we know Ms.Yang always goes bold rather than home). Ms.Yin, true to form, gravitated towards the darker side with polished black agate and smoky quartz but was also enticed by the allure of rich gold and even ruby red in the form of delicious drop earrings.
