2 April 2026: Since 1976, RISIS has stood as an enduring symbol of Singapore’s Gift to the World. As the brand celebrates its Golden Jubilee, this milestone marks not only a tribute to its heritage, but a bold step forward in shaping how Singapore’s cultural identity is expressed for the future.
More than a celebration, RISIS envisions this moment as a catalyst, uniting a curated gathering of finest cultural talents and high-net-worth patrons, showcasing the “Best of Singapore” through heritage, artistry, and contemporary creative voices.
RISIS Jubilee Capsule Series: 50 Years in Bloom
To commemorate this milestone, RISIS unveils its Jubilee Capsule Series, featuring 50 natural orchid species, bringing each natural bloom from the original 1976 brooch to new benchmarks from jewellery to lifestyle creations presented across five chapters monthly — R–I–S–I–S: Roots, Innovation, Splendour, Imagination, and Symphony — the series charts a journey of artistic design evolution.
Roots (April): A Tribute to Our Heritage
The opening capsule, Roots pays tribute to the genesis that defines RISIS, using a masterful encapsulation technique that preserves the Orchid’s delicate markings and natural speckles in exquisite detail. Each living bloom is immortalised in 24K Swiss Gold and Palladium, allowing the Orchid’s organic patterns to come alive in precious one-of-a-kind pieces.
RISIS x Janice Wong: A Bloom You can Wear…and Savour
As part of this celebration, RISIS partners with homegrown award-winning patisserie Janice Wong in a unique collaboration that bridges craftsmanship and culinary artistry. Featuring natural Cattleya and Doritaenopsis Summer Red Orchids encapsulated in 24K Swiss Gold and Palladium, these limited-edition Orchid Charm-Brooches are paired with matching artisanal chocolates crafted in natural plant-derived colours, bringing the bloom to life both in form and flavour. Priced at $398 and $368 respectively, this collectible creation is perfect for meaningful gifting for upcoming Mother’s Day.
“A creative fusion between craftsmanship and flavour, transforming the Orchids into an immersive artistic journey.”
The Journey Continues: Four Evolving Chapters
Innovation (Launching in May): Nature, Reimagined by Creativity
Capturing the creative pulse of RISIS where our artistry begins to move beyond a single orchid bloom. Petals are reimagined in asymmetrical forms, and new expressions emerge, from contemporary jewellery to an elegant scarf ring and a statement belt.
Splendour (Launching in June): Celebrating Peranakan Craft and the Orchid’s Grace
This Capsule celebrates the mastery of intricate lattice work and delicate filigree, bridging RISIS core DNA by fusing the soul of Peranakan heritage with the iconic Orchid.
Imagination: (Launching in July): Where Creativity Knows No Bounds
A whimsical garden comes alive around the Orchid in Imagination, with butterflies and bees in mid-flight, narrating a story in motion. Pushing the frontier of artistry, from the first-ever 24K Swiss Gold Barbie collectible to atelier jewellery set with radiant moissanite, each creation ventures into the new realm of luxury.
Symphony: (Launching in August): Where heritage and innovation are in perfect symphony
The grand culmination of the series marks the brand’s inaugural venture into horology, introducing timepieces that reflect the next pinnacle of RISIS craftsmanship. Art Deco–inspired diamond jewellery; a crescendo of design, this chapter signals not an ending, but a luminous beginning of a new era.
Asia’s First Cultural Orchid Gala: A Cultural Collective in Motion
Building on the Jubilee Capsule Series, RISIS extends its vision beyond a jeweller into a cultural patron catalysing broader cultural movement. By bringing together designers, creators, and partners, the brand seeks to spotlight Singapore’s living culture, offering experiences that go beyond the skyline and resonate with today’s global audience.
As the grand finale of its Jubilee celebrations, RISIS will present Asia’s first Cultural Orchid Gala, a landmark event envisioned as the “Met Gala of Orchids.” Rooted in authentic “Made of Singapore” stories, the gala brings together a distinguished cultural collective encompassing design, heritage, orchid diplomacy, creative talent, and philanthropy, while raising funds for biodiversity conservation and community engagement. Drawing on more than a decade of expertise from the New York Botanical Garden, whose Orchid Galas are globally renowned, RISIS ensures its inaugural event will be both spectacular and impactful.
The evening will be preceded by a glittering red-carpet arrivals and curated pre-Gala experiences for high-society guests, offering guests to engage with Singapore’s rich heritage, from craftsmanship to botanical excellence, before the formal gala begins. More than just an evening of elegance, the Cultural Orchid Gala positions Singapore as a premier destination for high-net-worth travellers, sustainability advocates, and modern explorers seeking meaningful, world-class experiences.
Spotlighting Singapore’s botanical excellence on a global stage, supported beneficiaries will include Garden City Fund, the National Parks Board’s (NParks) registered charity and Institution of a Public Character (IPC), and United Women Singapore, with more details to be announced in due course.
This inaugural gala is more than a celebration of orchids, it is a showcase of Singapore as a global hub, where heritage, artistry, and philanthropy converge to create an unforgettable evening that elevates the nation’s cultural and global distinction.
“Positioning Singapore as a premier destination for high-net-worth travellers and global audiences, drawn by world-class fundraising and exceptional cultural experiences.”
A Legacy Beyond Orchids
Ultimately, the RISIS Jubilee is an invitation to creators, partners, and the community, to join a shared movement. To celebrate what makes Singapore unique, and to carry it forward in new and unexpected ways.
Because for RISIS, it has never been just about preserving orchids. It is about preserving cultural stories, identity, and the spirit of Singapore for generations to come.
