Interviewer: Welcome! This new jewellery collection is truly captivating. What was the initial spark of inspiration?

Designer: Thank you! With the buzz around "Emerald Hill," we felt it was the perfect moment to create something that resonated with its fans and also celebrated the beauty of Peranakan design. We wanted something instantly recognizable, a nod to the heritage that felt both familiar and fresh. That's when we landed on the iconic tile prints seen in Peranakan homes.

Interviewer: And there's a specific significance to this particular tile, isn't there?

Designer: Absolutely! This specific geometric tile pattern takes center stage in the Zhang family's kitchen in "Emerald Hill." It's a backdrop to so many key moments in the show, where relationships evolve and stories unfold. We thought it would be a wonderful way for viewers to keep a tangible memory of the series, beautifully translated into wearable art.

Interviewer: The collection is also beautifully hued in emerald. Tell us about that choice.

Designer: (Smiling) Well, "Emerald Hill" speaks for itself, doesn't it? Emerald is such a rich and evocative color, reminiscent of lush landscapes and timeless elegance. It directly honors the show's title while also bringing a sense of sophisticated vibrancy to our jewellery designs. It’s a colour that feels both luxurious and grounded, adding a captivating jewel-toned touch to any ensemble.

Interviewer: It sounds like a straightforward process, but were there any unique challenges in bringing this vision to life as jewellery ?

Designer: (Chuckles) Ah, the delightful challenges of creation! Translating a tile motif into delicate jewellery pieces required a careful balancing act. We were particularly focused on the fit within our signature design frames – ensuring the tile pattern felt harmonious and not overwhelming. Then came the intricacies of colour density. How much emerald would truly make each piece shine without losing the subtlety of the design? And the scale of the print was crucial. We wanted it to feel modern and elegant on necklaces, earrings, and bracelets while still honoring its traditional roots. It involved a lot of meticulous tweaking and refining to achieve that perfect balance.

Interviewer: The result is a stunning collection that truly bridges heritage and contemporary style. What do you hope people feel when they wear these pieces?

Designer: We hope they feel a connection – to the rich cultural tapestry of Peranakan design and perhaps to the captivating world of "Emerald Hill." These pieces are more than just adornments; they're little stories you can wear, sparking conversations and adding a touch of unique elegance to your personal expression. Whether you're a fan of the show or simply appreciate exquisite craftsmanship and cultural significance, we hope you find a treasured piece within this collection.
