About ZSISKA
Dutch design, Thai craftsmanship since 1992
Our Story
ZSISKA blends Dutch design with Thai craftsmanship to create modern, wearable art in resin and mixed materials. Our studio in Cha-Am, Thailand, is where concepts become colour, form, and light — made to be worn every day and remembered for years.
Today, ZSISKA offers three distinct product lines — ZSISKA Design, BLISS by ZSISKA, and PRUE by ZSISKA — each with its own character, united by a commitment to handmade quality and original design.
Our DNA
Four pillars that guide everything we create
Dutch design sensibility, handcrafted in Thailand by second-generation artisans.
Every bead is poured, painted, polished, and knotted by hand in our Cha-Am studio.
Techniques refined over three decades for clarity, lightness, and comfort.
New collections launch twice a year, inspired by art, nature, and colour.
Siska Schipper
Trained as a European gold and silversmith, Siska moved to Thailand in the 1990s to master resin. She started in a small studio in Cha-Am with fourteen women — many of whom, and their families, still shape our work today.
Her vision: jewellery that feels effortless, looks luminous, and carries the warmth of human hands in every detail. That vision now spans three product lines — ZSISKA Design, BLISS, and the PRUE collaboration with Dame Prue Leith.
ZSISKA Design
The heart of the brand. Each season, Siska Schipper draws inspiration from art, architecture, nature, and colour to create collections in resin, mixed materials, and hand-painted detail. From translucent pastels to bold geometric forms — every piece is an original, handmade in Cha-Am.
The Spring/Summer 2026 season introduces 9 new collections — Amsterdam, Bali, Flow, Gemma, Hana, Luz, Omni, Perla, and Pisce — alongside returning favourites like Bellissima, Origami, and Garland.
BLISS by ZSISKA
BLISS is jewellery you design yourself. Choose a cord, chain, or earring hook, then add handcrafted beads to create something uniquely yours. Switch beads between styles, mix collections, layer colours — one system, endless combinations.
With 11 bead collections including Glitz, Musee, Chill, Glam, and Organa, plus 22 cord and chain styles, BLISS makes it easy to build a jewellery wardrobe that evolves with you.

PRUE by ZSISKA
Dame Prue Leith — celebrated TV presenter, Great British Bake Off judge, and author — is known for her bold, colourful personal style. Her collaboration with ZSISKA founder Siska Schipper brings that confidence into jewellery: statement silhouettes, gold accents, and hand-painted resin in vivid tones.
The PRUE collection includes necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and PRUE's BLISS — interchangeable beads designed with Prue's signature flair. Collections include Pyrite, Sirocco, Tria, and the new Flora.
Made by Hand
We developed ways to make resin crystal-clear yet feather-light, combining it with materials like 24k gold leaf and pure silver leaf. Each bead is individually poured into a mould, hand-painted with fine brushes, polished to a smooth finish, and strung by hand. The result: pieces that feel effortless and look luminous from day to night.
Our materials include translucent and opaque resins, metallic pigments, hand-applied gold and silver leaf, and woven cords. Every piece passes through multiple hands before it leaves the studio — quality is checked at every stage.
Community
ZSISKA grew from a women-led studio and continues to invest in training, stable employment, and safe, respectful working conditions in Cha-Am. Our pieces are made in small, careful batches to reduce waste.
We prioritise durable design so each piece is worn longer and loved more. Many of the artisans who started with Siska in the 1990s still work alongside their families in the studio today — second-generation craftspeople carrying forward techniques refined over three decades.
What Our Customers Say
Let customers speak for us
Never disappointed in the design, quality and service delivered by Zsiska team.
Weer hele mooie oorbellen gekocht
Serie van prue had al de ketting maar wilde oorbellen erbij
The beads are colorful and well made. The bracelet is lightweight and fits perfectly. Love the magnetic clasp.
My items were exactly as pictured and quality for the price was outstanding. I enjoy wearing beautiful pieces and receive constant compliments.
Very easy to navigate the web site and simple purchasing process. Warning ,my purchase came from Thailand, which could have been made more obvious. However, on saying that, my item was delivered within 5 working days by FedEx. My item was well packaged and exactly as the website picture had shown. Well done.
I can’t get enough of these beads. I am slowly buying them in all the colours I wear so I can mix and match. It would be great if we could also do that with bracelets and earrings.
I cannot get enough of this jewellery! Now have 2 dozen beads, and I love mixing and matching. My latest purchase arrived quickly and is gorgeous. I wish Zsiska made both bracelet and earring "structures" so we could mix and match beads to match our necklace creations.
Quality and service!
I only wish my Zsiska-Glitz Green facet bead had as many goldflakes as the bead on the site.
Such fun mixing and matching beads to go with my various clothing.
I could never be disappointed with Zsiska!
ZSISKA jewelry is so fun and enjoy wearing such artistic pieces. Love the ability to buy various beads. Appreciate the price points!
Every piece I purchase from you have been really lovely. These last few pieces I have bought as gifts.
Love the colours and making my own necklaces to go either various outfits.
