AUTHENTICITY

Taking inspiration from personal experiences, memories and identity, LANI LEES jewelry is handcrafted and embedded with unique, authentic narratives. The Brand collaborates with individuals from it's wider community: people who LANI LEES forms deep, personal connections with and who have their own stories to tell. This reflects the brand’s mission to make universal pieces for people from all walks of life and to use jewelry as a way to foster unity.

RESPONSIBILITY

Hand crafting each piece to order using recycled gold, silver, and packaging materials, the brand ensures low levels of waste and keeps surplus stock to a minimum.

Designed with simplicity and minimalism in mind, all LANI LEES pieces are made to last. Creating classic items—such as the LANI LEES basic collection, an unchanging assortment of timeless pieces—the brand endeavours to inspire customers to have a deeper connection with jewelry: to see it as something that can be passed down generations rather than bought and discarded in line with passing trends, seasons, and sales.

UNIVERSALITY

Inspired by art forms such as music and dance, which many describe as universal languages, LANI LEES aims to connect people from all over the world. The brand celebrates free love and sexuality through its creative direction and aesthetics, with the aim of making these topics more present in contemporary society.

LANI LEES endeavours to be a force for positive change, whether this be through creating genderless collections or through donating to Daughters Rising, a Chiang Mai-based NGO empowering young women and girls at risk of human trafficking.

In short: authenticity, responsibility and unity - are the guiding principles the brand is based upon and endeavours to channel into all of its activities.
