"Reimagining Pearls.
Redefining Elegance."
In a world of fast trends and shifting luxury, Pearly Lustre stands apart by making a powerful statement: elegance is eternal—but it can also be modern, wearable, and accessible.
Founded in 2020 in Singapore—a city known for turning limitations into creativity—Pearly Lustre set out to breathe new life into pearl jewellery. Its mission: to revive pearls for a new generation by blending premium global materials with distinct local design. Each piece reflects Singapore’s multicultural soul—refined, bold, and contemporary.
More than just a jewellery brand, Pearly Lustre is a cultural storyteller. Appointed as an official gifting partner for Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, its creations have been presented to global leaders and dignitaries - making every necklace and earring not just adornments, but symbols of diplomacy and identity.
Notable collaborations with Singapore Airlines, Mandai Wildlife Group, and the Asian Civilisations Museum have yielded collections that celebrate Batik motifs, orchids, and wildlife conservation.
Today, Pearly Lustre’s collections are available on KrisShop.com, off ering global travellers a touch of Singaporean elegance through exclusive designs and local storytelling.

Though Pearly Lustre and Kinohimitsu belong to different realms - jewellery and wellness -they share a common thread: both were forged in the crucible of Singapore’s ambition. Their stories reflect the very values that define our nation - resilience, reinvention, and a restless drive to shape what’s next. “We are not just celebrating the past - we are actively designing the next chapter of the Singapore story.”
At 60, Singapore stands taller than ever. Here’s to the native brands elevating our story beyond borders - with every pearl, every sip, every spark of homegrown brilliance.
"Just as Singapore grew without natural resources, relying instead on the grit and innovation of its people - we too draw inspiration from the pearl. A pearl does not exist naturally in abundance; it is cultivated through care, patience, and vision. Pearly Lustre embodies this same philosophy - turning something rare into something iconic through relentless refinement."
