Our Story
Born in Seoul,
made for the world
Lumière was founded in 2023 by Ji-Yeon Park, a Seoul-based jewelry designer who trained at the Hiko Mizuno College of Jewelry in Tokyo and apprenticed under goldsmiths in Jongno — Seoul's centuries-old jewelry district.
Frustrated by the gap between mass-produced fashion jewelry and inaccessible luxury, Ji-Yeon set out to create something in between: pieces that are genuinely well-made, ethically sourced, and beautiful enough to keep for a lifetime — at a price that doesn't require a lifetime to afford.
Every Lumière piece is designed in our Gangnam atelier and crafted by a network of master artisans across Seoul. We use only 925 sterling silver, 14K and 18K gold vermeil, and ethically sourced gemstones. No plated base metals. No shortcuts.
Ethical Sourcing
Every stone is traceable. We work exclusively with Kimberley Process certified suppliers and source lab-grown diamonds for accessible luxury without compromise.
Artisan Craft
Each piece passes through the hands of 3–5 artisans. From casting to polishing, stone-setting to quality inspection — no step is automated.
Quiet Luxury
No logos. No flash. Just clean lines, honest materials, and the kind of beauty that reveals itself slowly. Jewelry for people who know.
