A Nod to Design

With a background in fine arts and fashion design, Wenjing Yang of A Nod to Design channels a lifelong passion for creating into sculptural, nature inspired jewelry. Each limited edition collection is a wearable expression of beauty and meaning.

Wenjing’s creative process is driven by curiosity and craft. Each limited edition collection is thoughtfully designed, drawing on a wide range of influences—from fiber arts to photography—and released once a year.

Beyond beauty, A Nod to Design is built on purpose. Every year, 5% of all sales are donated to a nonprofit partner. In 2020, the studio supported The Oregon Food Bank to help fight hunger in the local community.
