OUR STORY

We will always make time for inspiring our craft - to play, to adventure, to treasure hunt, to make, to challenge, to love, to be forever learning.

JJSTUDIO is operated by jewellery artist couple Jay Joo and Alice Yujing Yan. Both artists have been working on various series exploring three-dimensional structure and surface in their personal body of works. 
In their individual practice, Jay and Alice are each inspired by structure and surface but in very different ways. Both artists had a very different Training background, which showcases in their personal body of work.
