An Invitation to Co-Create: The Rare Journey of a Lunar Bangle
Introducing A New Chapter in Our Jade Journey
For the first time in our history, we’re opening a small number of private sourcing opportunities for the Lunar Bangles.
Over the years, we’ve received an increasing number of heartfelt notes from clients asking about our Lunar Bangles — pieces that rarely appear in even our most abundant Digital Trunk Shows. Ethereal in hue, impossibly rare in nature, and not replicable, each Lunar is genuinely one of one. When clients ask if we have the same piece in a different size or tone, the answer is, heartbreakingly, almost always no.
This year, we’re doing something unprecedented. We are opening a few, scarce private sourcing journeys for the Lunar Bangles — inviting longtime members of our community to co-create one of the most exquisite pieces with us and Mother Earth.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
This opportunity is extremely limited.
We are only able to accept a small number of clients. Every piece is handpicked for you — not just for its quality, but for the precise tone, hue, and dimensions that honour your story. It’s a meticulous, highly personal and laborious process.
It is best suited to bangle collectors.
Lunars are complex and nuanced — they carry a layered beauty that reveals itself over time. This journey is best suited to those who already own a Choo Yilin bangle and understand the intimacy of jade. If you’re new to the world of jade, we recommend starting with The Vault or with our upcoming release later this year.
Bangles priced from $15,888 USD.
This reflects the rarity, craftsmanship, and emotional labour poured into every Lunar bangle. We know this may not align with where everyone is, and that’s okay. This is simply one part of a much larger story. We’re crafting a beautiful release for the end of the year with a broader range of price points.
It’s a relationship, not a transaction.
This sourcing journey is not something we charge a fee for. It’s an extension of our promise to those who’ve journeyed with us before. However, because of the intimacy of the process, we are only able to extend this to returning clients at this time.
If this calls to you, we would love to hear from you. We will be reading every note personally, even if we can’t reply to all. And if this particular experience isn’t the right fit for you, please know you remain an important part of our community.
We’re creating something extraordinary for the final quarter of the year, designed to meet you wherever you are on your journey. For more details on how the private sourcing works, read the FAQ below.
There will be more beauty. And more magic. Always.
With love and reverence,
The Choo Yilin Team
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Before anything begins, we’ll take time to understand your preferences and fit — size, colour, translucency, and more. This allows us to source a jade bangle that truly speaks to you.
-
We’re curating this experience for a very specific group of clients. After learning more about what you're looking for, we'll let you know if this particular sourcing trip is the right fit for you. We will offer alternatives if this isn’t the right fit.
-
We’ll begin the sourcing process — looking for bangles that match what you’re hoping for. As pieces emerge, we’ll send you real-time videos directly from the ground.
-
Because jade pieces — especially exquisitely rare ones like the Lunars — move quickly, we ask that you reply within 12 to 24 hours of receiving each video. This allows us to secure the bangle for you before it’s gone. Please note that we cannot guarantee holding a piece for you without a deposit being made.
-
If a particular bangle feels right to you, we can reserve it with a 50% deposit to begin the customisation process. Please note that sourcing a Lunar is an inherently rare and challenging process — it often takes time, care, and a little luck to find a piece that truly resonates with both you and us.
Once the bangle is secured, we recommend pairing it exclusively with the Lunar clasp. Our team at Choo Yilin spent months perfecting this design to complement the Lunar bangles — striking the ideal balance between intricate lattice goldwork and the bangle’s attributes.
-
Choo Yilin currently operates as a digital-only atelier, so clients will need to feel comfortable making their selections remotely.
To proceed, we request client already own a Choo Yilin bangle, as we will use your existing size as the benchmark and adjust if necessary. -
Yes, your bangle will feature our signature Lunar clasp, handcrafted for the piece and designed to marry heritage with quiet innovation.
We will not be able to sell the bangle without any of the signature Choo Yilin gold latticework on it.
-
Yes. As with all our jade creations, the bangle will be accompanied by a third-party gemologist certificate verifying that it is authentic, untreated Type A jadeite.
-
The remaining 50% of the payment will be due when your bangle is complete and ready to come home to you.
-
Please allow approximately 4-6 months from the time of deposit to completion. These heirlooms take time — and they’re always worth the wait.
