    What our happy customers say:

     

    Innovative designs with a touch of elegance -  Ivan, who bought a gift for her girlfriend

     

     

    Unique, exquisitely designed yet very reasonably priced - Paochun

     

     

    Myth: Accessories that are more than $10 are not worth paying for.

    Truth: Zen collection speaks volume on quality and creativity.

    I am amazed by Zen creativity in transforming an old piece of my old jewellery to something so new and modern. Zen collection always evoke memories and inspirations - Jasmine

     

     

    "Trinket" means a small ornament or item of jewellery that is of little value.  Indeed, it's of that little value that brings forth the best of Zen's creativity.  Her collections are classic and charming! Distinctive in their own ways that is suitable for all occasions! Little creations that are valued by her followers! - WS

     

     

    The necklace Zen customized for me is simply awesome. The thing about Zen which makes her different from other jewelry makers is that she is a very good listener. I told her how I wanted to look, and a week later, she gave me what I wanted. Amazing!

     

    I really love the bracelet that Zen customized for me. I used to be a fan of Tiffany & Co., but I didn't like the fact that everyone is wearing the same thing. So I told Zen that I wanted something special, then she started asking me about my lifestyle. After a week later, she handed me my bracelet and when I saw it, I tell myself I MUST get it! - Serene

  • Vintage Notebook

    About Me N3F_9081

    I developed this special affinity with jewellery-making about 7 years ago. I was fascinated with beads of different shapes, sizes and colours at a bead shop. That was where I bought my first beads and began exploring ideas in making necklaces and earrings.

     

    I took up a jewellery-making course where I learned techniques such as stringing, wirework and weaving. I looked forward to learning more at each class.

     

    I started making jewellery as gifts for my friends. Subsequently, I publicised my creations online and sold them at various flea markets - China Square, Tanglin Mall and Scape.

     

    I will like to specially thank the following people for their encouragement, help and support:

     

    Serene, Nancy, Paochun, Pei San, Irene, Cindy, Hwee Yinn and Hui Siang and

    Aaron, Staige for photography and styling (http://www.staige.com)

     

     

    Concept

    The Trinket Shop - World of Fairies aims to bring wonders to your life.

     

    I am always mesmerised by fairy taleshat explains my collection of Enid Blyton storybooks. Fairies are supernatural beings that possess the magical power to create miracles for mankind. They love to help and create hope for those in need.

     

    Likewise, I have adopted their nature to try to understand my customers better and provide them a new definition to looking and feeling good with my exclusive handmade designs.

     

    Accessories play an important role in enhancing your overall dressing. The choice of the accessories reflects the personality and/or lifestyle of an individual. The Trinket Shop will do that perfect matchmaking for you.

     

     

    Products

    My design is inspired from various sources such as nature, culture, fantasy, movies. Each design is a limited edition and comes in 1 or maximum 3 pieces per design. I always look out for new, unique and good quality materials to work on the design.

     

    Since December last year, 5 collections including the latest one has been launched. I plan to look into home decoration accessories as well.
