Introducing
Daintynine
At Daintynine, our artisan crocheted jewelry collections are designed and handmade with exceptional craftsmanship by Ruth, a true master of her craft.
Here, you’ll find jewelry crafted with premium glass beads and a diverse range of materials, all brought together through intricate crochet stitches, using a technique unique to Daintynine.
Every piece is handmade, with its own unique story and history—truly one of a kind.
The name "Daintynine" is a fusion of two elements: dainty, representing the delicate glass seed beads in our creations, and nine, inspired by the phrase "cloud nine"—a symbol of perfect happiness. We believe that happiness is what truly matters in life and should be at the heart of everything we do.
The one behind it all
Ruth Kui
Since the age of 7, Ruth has been immersed in the world of crochet, a craft lovingly bestowed upon her by her mother. Over time, it became more than just a skill—it became a part of her, shaping both her artistry and her life.
With a deep appreciation for the beauty of crochet and the elegance of beads, Ruth began experimenting with combining the two.
Through trial and refinement, she crafted her first circular charm, with the seed beads intricately arranged using a unique crochet technique she originated. It was small, simple—a single color—but it marked the beginning of something more.
She named the first pair of earrings made with this charm Prelude. And with that, the story of Daintynine was born.

Launch of loyalty program & venture into silversmithing
With the exciting launch of our loyalty program, Daintypoints, we want to thank you for your continued support.
Through the acquisition of silversmithing skills, Ruth stepped into a world of endless possibilities for her jewelry. We can now design rings and pendants with unique features, which allow us to adorn them with our crocheted charms.
