Jewellery Design Alumni, Tina Winness received the Iron A’Design Award for her Tribute Wau Multifunction Pendant, a stunning piece made with 18k gold, sapphires and diamonds featuring a nephrite jade centre.

The Tribute Wau was created to pay homage to master kite-maker Shafie Jusoh who passed away just as Winness was about to pay him a visit to learn more about the traditional craft.

She wanted to bring awareness to the fading tradition of Wau making and the piece was created to inspire future generations.
