Garden of Desire offers a collection of contemporary jewellery, designed by the super talented Ly Pisith and handmade in silver by him and his team of craftsmen. His pieces are made from 955 fine silver, 925 sterling silver, 18k gold and semi-precious stones. Born in Cambodia, Pisith fled to France during the war, where he grew up and built a career as a product designer for major brands such as Alain Mikli and Starck. A career move then took him to Singapore where he met his wife and business partner Agnes Lim. In 2007, Pisith returned to Cambodia and a year later, Garden of Desire was born, founded by Pisith and Agnes.
