Conceived in 2004 by Dennis Chan and Guillaume Brochard, Qeelin’s signature blend of Chinese motifs and modern design offers an East-meets-West aesthetic that captivates audiences globally.
Most renowned for its calabash-inspired Wulu collection, which symbolises good health and protection in Chinese lore, the brand’s luxurious lines feature bridal and fine-jewellery designs, too – enchanting capsules that champion precious materials, including jade and diamonds.
Now with a flagship store in Tokyo, Qeelin’s commitment to its Chinese heritage remains strong, while the authenticity of its designs continues to invite the international style set – including megastars like Shakira – to embrace its cultural narrative.
