Born in 1982, Ji Young (Julia) Kang grew up across England, India, Singapore, and China—absorbing how different cultures wear and value jewelry. These diverse experiences gave her the ability to recognize common threads across cultures: meaning, heritage, and the joy of adornment. Bringing that perspective together with Korean craftsmanship and introducing it to new markets has become her greatest passion. Today, she curates Korean handmade accessories with a distinctly global point of view.

JiYoung Kang, founder of JiYoung Kang Studio and former creator of RingPocket and Sheer, represents the craftsmanship of generations of Korean artisans — many of whom began as individual makers in Namdaemun Market, the heart of Seoul’s handmade jewelry scene.

Today, her studio bridges heritage and modern design, uniting traditional artistry with contemporary style. The Show & Tell event celebrates this connection — where Korean craftsmanship, heritage, and design innovation come together under one vision.

This elegant statement necklace from JiYoung Kang Studio is handcrafted with blue sapphire–colored Czech stones, each precisely cut to capture and reflect light with refined brilliance. The design features a harmonious arrangement of teardrop and round-cut stones, delicately framed by clear crystal accents to create a look that is neither overly ornate nor understated, but beautifully poised in elegance.

Finished in black nickel plated and sealed with a clear protective layer to create a beautiful contrast with bright Czech stones, the piece embodies a quiet sense of sophistication and timeless charm. It enhances the wearer’s natural beauty with a touch of formality and grace, making it ideal for ceremonial occasions, evening gatherings, or modern bridal styling.
More than a necklace, it is a reflection of Korean craftsmanship—refined, balanced, and enduringly elegant. Now Available at JIYOUNG KANG STUDIO
