Wang Xiao Mei, a professional designer from Beijing, took home the Xifu Grand

Prize for her delicate and exquisite design that was lauded by all of the

judges. Her winning entry was inspired by the Golden Wattle. According to Wang,

the flower alludes to an old story of true and everlasting love between a

couple, thereby embodying the competition's theme, "Oneness." She also thanked

the judges for acknowledging and appreciating her cutting-edge design.

Yi Ran, who was awarded the first prize in the Plain Gold Jewellery category,

was grateful to be given an international platform to showcase her talents. She

ingeniously applied mechanical concepts to her design so that it would form the

Chinese word for "Oneness" when arranged at a certain angle. The first prize in

the Gem-set Gold Jewellery category went to Xu Min. Her design drew inspiration

from the water molecule, which consists of inseparable bonds between two

elements. She noted that this concept of togetherness and completion likewise

applies to the competition's theme, "Oneness."

competition. According to her, the award boosts her determination to continue

second prize in the Gem-set Gold Jewellery category, shared the glory of his

victory with the craftsmen who flawlessly captured the essence of his design in

the actual jewellery piece. His win emboldens him to vie for the Xifu Grand
