2025—A Year Held in Meaning

As the year comes to a close, we’re reflecting on the moments that shaped us—stories shared, traditions honored, and new chapters written in gold.

DECEMBER 26, 2025

As the year draws to a close, we find ourselves pausing—looking back on the moments that shaped us, the stories we were invited into, and the traditions that continued to evolve alongside our community.


This year was one of movement, memory, and connection.


We began by honoring heritage and identity with the Heritage Passport Charm, introduced on Korean American Day. Inspired by our founder Jennie’s own immigration story—and those echoed throughout our community—the piece became a tribute to where we come from and what we carry forward. Stories of resilience, sacrifice, pride, and legacy, held close in gold.


We explored transformation and fluidity through Janessa Leoné, where jewelry became art in motion. The Cascade Collection reimagined form itself—rings shifting into cuffs, ear cuffs transforming with movement—mirroring the rhythm of Los Angeles and the way we continue to evolve.


This year also marked an expansion of our design language. With The Men’s Edit, we introduced classics made for everyday rituals—morning coffee, long drives, steady work, and quiet craft. Pieces designed to move with you now, and one day be passed down. With Courtside Tennis, we leaned into legacy with a wink—diamond staples and playful pendants that celebrate tradition, reinterpreted.


We gathered often, and intentionally.

With brides-to-be discovering the Vow Collection alongside The Friend Club.

With LOHO Bride, celebrating heirlooms and love stories in shared spaces.

With Vince, where our relationship—first sparked through Meet the Artist with Caroline Belhumeur—came to life during a holiday pop-in on Madison Avenue.


We celebrated milestones together.

Kinn turning eight marked not just a birthday, but the stories we’ve created alongside you. New birthstone charms were introduced to honor moments big and small—birthdays, anniversaries, and memories only you can define. A reflection of where we’ve been, and what’s still to come.


And then came Kinnmas—five days of surprise, nostalgia, and the joy of giving. Inspired by vintage board games and the glow of classic holiday gatherings, it was our way of bringing back the magic of discovery—the kind that lingers, that’s passed between hands, that’s remembered.

Through it all, one thing remained constant: the belief that jewelry should carry meaning beyond a season. That it should reflect where you come from, where you are, and what you’ll pass on.


As Jennie shared with our community this season:

“Wherever today takes you, we hope you find a quiet moment—one filled with warmth, presence, and the people who feel like home. Thank you for letting Kinn be part of your story. It’s something we hold deeply and never take for granted.”


We’re grateful—for our community, our partners, our team, and the moments we’ve shared this year. We’ll carry them with us into what’s next.


Wishing you a meaningful holiday, and memories you’ll take into the new year.


Then, Now, Always.
