*Produced by SilverKris for the following brands*

As Singapore once again retreats into the safety of home, our thoughts turn to supporting local businesses and all the purchases, big and small, that soothe us in uncertain times. Whether that’s upping your cooking game, a natural bamboo standing desk for your work-from-home set-up or finally planning your ever-postponed small wedding, these Singapore-based businesses offer top-notch products and services that help make life beautiful, no matter the circumstances.

Quality gems and French design by L'Excellence
A bespoke jewellery experience by L’Excellence

L’Excellence

Those seeking engagement rings, anniversary gifts or family heirlooms will love the bespoke service and enchanting story behind this third-generation family jeweller. L’Excellence began in the ’50s when Chinese-Thai entrepreneur Mr Khau started a renowned ruby and sapphire mine in Cambodia’s legendary Pailin region. In the ’70s, the family moved to Paris where his son expanded into diamonds and other gems wholesale and incorporated the highest standards of French jewellery-making. Today his grand-daughters, former investment professionals Sylvie and Sophie, carry on the family legacy by offering a unique proposition: direct sourcing of certified diamonds and gems, bespoke designs and crafting at French standards and consultation in gems acquisition for investment.

K-ART Cookware

The past year has made a home-chef out of everyone (almost!) but if you need a bit more encouragement, treating yourself to new and affordable cookware might do the trick. K-ART specialises in cookware, kitchen accessories and stainless steel goods. The made-in-Korea maifan stone series of woks and pots are particularly inspiring, with seven layers of coating that promote even heat distribution, produce 80% less smoke and ensure no chemicals leach into the food. Wellness enthusiasts will also appreciate the high-quality non-stick nano coating which requires far less oil than other cookware, approved by the US FDA.
