Yao · one goldsmith

Weight, movement, and setting designed as one piece.

Custom Cuban work starts with the fit and feel you want. Work with Yao on the size, weight, link shape, and stone setting. These pieces are made to order, not picked from ready-stock inventory.

Before you order

What size and weight details help with Cuban work?

Bring the intended size, wear location, preferred weight range when known, setting direction, and any reference. Those inputs help shape movement and construction as one piece.

Is this a ready-stock Cuban catalog?

No. Each order is custom work. Tell Yao your size, preferred weight, and design ideas so he can quote the piece.

How are private Cuban references handled?

Your photos and references stay private unless you separately agree to share them publicly.

Tell Yao what you have in mind. You'll agree on the work, price, and timing before placing an order.
