'Treasure' - Hsiao-Chi Tsai & Kimiya Yoshikawa

On an impromtu visit to London yesterday I found much to 'Treasure' in Hsiao-Chi Tsai & Kimiya Yoshikawa's work, well done the organisor's of this show for London International Jewellery Week for asking this extremely talented duo to contribute something!

I will confess I am no stranger to their magical work, I remember the Royal College Show in 2006 and the Harvey Nichols Windows in 2007 (check out the website for some great photos of these), before laser cutting broke out, these guys were doing sophisticated and inventive, detailed cutting work on a large scale by hand and still do.

Two photos to add one of their stand at 'Treasure', giving you a glimpse of their colourful statement jewellery and one of their perfectly executed new hanging light that we will be bringing to Winchester for the Pop Up Design Shop unless it is snapped up before (is your hallway big enough? :>). We will be showcasing the jewellery too with pieces performing on the catwalk and in the shop!



The pair offer a commission based service for large scale lighting and sculpture work, there are plenty of examples on their website in each portfolio and are discussing the making of chandeliers - if you can help them with this get in touch with them!



Along with myself and Lighting Designer James Poore we have put in our respective submissions to Lux Craft at Origin. I look forward to hosting their work in Winchester this July 16th - 31st at the Pop Up Design Shop in The Brooks Shopping Centre and to seeing future exciting pieces from them with them going from strength to strength!
