Kin, by element

In Chinese thought, 緣 (yuán) is the quiet thread that connects people. Element Kin was started to share a tradition that is thousands of years old: the Five Elements of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth, and the twelve animals of the zodiac.

What we make

Bracelets, pendants, desk pieces and traditional keepsakes. Each one is matched to an element or a zodiac animal, so you can find the pieces that belong to you, or to someone you love.

Culture, not promises

Our pieces carry cultural meaning. We describe the symbolism behind them, but we never claim that a bracelet or charm will change your luck, health or future. Wear them as story and as heritage.
