About the host
Hannah Ren
Jewelry Designer & Entrepreneur*
Born in Beijing, raised in Australia, Hannah blends Eastern traditions with Western creativity. She studied Jewelry Design at Melbourne’s RMIT University and started her own studio in 2015, mixing modern styles with cultural roots.
After moving back to China in 2015, Hannah began her career at Chinese jewelry brand “I Do”, driving new designs and global growth and awareness. But seeing traditional crafts disappear pushed her to act: "I wanted to save these craft skills through smart business."
Hannah’s dream is to build an online platform to help not only Chinese craftspeople, like traditional silversmiths and Miao embroiderers, but also craftspeople worldwide to sell their handmade luxury goods.
Hannah knows when crafts people earn a good living, their skills survives, whether designing jewelry or mentoring makers, she believes that by “Respect the past. we can build the future.”
