The ‘Pond’ shape was originally inspired by the Kyoto Garden in a part of Holland Park, London which is Yuki’s local park now. That traditional Japanese garden area is very different from other parts of Holland Park. A big pond is surrounded by well trimmed trees, stones and lawns, but somehow the garden is harmonised with the Victorian English park and is a very popular area of the park. It was a wonderful experience to see different cultural background’s people all with a different sense of beauty enjoying and sharing the same garden.
Yuki is from Kamakura, Japan and has lived and worked in London since 2004. She has worked as a large scale metals welder, packaging designer and editorial designer in Tokyo during her twenties. Yuki’s collections are inspired by her positive events in her life and the environment in her surroundings and the differences of Jewellery history in England and Japan. She explores textures, shapes and patterns derived from traditional embroidery, textiles to cities and nature.
