We take the jewelry, eyewear and objects of a new generation of Chinese designers — and make them something the whole world wants to wear, gift and live with.
China’s independent design scene is quietly extraordinary — studios working in pearl, stone, glass and gold with a point of view all their own. Yet most of it never reaches a global audience.
DesignSino exists to change that. We partner directly with named studios, produce in small batches, and present each piece the way it deserves: as original design, with an author behind it.
Explore the collectionEvery piece carries the name of the studio that made it. We celebrate designers, not catalogues.
Freshwater pearls, opal, amethyst and agate — real materials, honestly set and honestly described.
Designed in China, made to feel at home anywhere — on the body, in the home, as a gift.
Working from a small studio, Studio Mu builds around the imperfection of natural materials — baroque pearls, raw opal, faceted amethyst — held in settings that feel grown rather than manufactured.
Lin Atelier treats gold like liquid — molten bars, hand-formed cradles and fluid lines that turn a classic pearl into something distinctly modern and architectural.
DesignSino is a curated online marketplace for original jewelry, pearls and lifestyle objects created by independent Chinese design studios. Each piece is authored by a named studio, produced in small batches and shipped worldwide.
Natural materials — freshwater and baroque pearls, natural mother-of-pearl, opal, amethyst and agate — set in 925 sterling silver, most finished with 18k gold plating. Materials are honestly described on every product page.
We ship worldwide. Shipping is complimentary on orders over $199, and orders typically arrive within 15–20 days, as each piece is made in small batches.
