About WWAKE


Inspired by the tradition of art breaking with convention, WWAKE offers a new perspective on heirloom jewelry with unexpected arrangements and modern silhouettes. 

The pieces are defined by their signature contour shapes and light stone arrangements. The WWAKE team crafts all jewelry in New York with the highest-quality materials and conflict-free diamonds.


About Wing Yau 


Wing Yau, WWAKE's founder, was born in the Pacific Northwest. She attended the Rhode Island School of Design for sculpture, then assisted New York City artists and galleries before falling in love with design.

After making a series of necklaces based on textile sculptures, Yau founded WWAKE in 2012 with the idea of blending art with intimate jewelry. Today, WWAKE is a 100% women-run, design-driven, sustainable fine jewelry organization.
