Rooted in memory and meaning, TRIT transforms life’s most personal moments into discreet jewellery that turns meaningful dates into pieces you can wear every day
For Jenny Syquia, jewellery was never just something you wear. Long before she founded TRIT, she was already attracted to the stories behind each piece rather than their appearance. As a child, she was captivated by her grandmother’s Tiffany & Co gold charm bracelet, with each detail representing a memory. Her mother’s bracelet told a different story—one of travel—featuring charms collected from various parts of the world before her life eventually brought her to the Philippines. Those early memories shaped her view of jewellery: it’s not just decoration, but something that can tell a story.
That idea later evolved into TRIT, a brand rooted in memory and significance. The concept materialised when Syquia started designing rings for herself, encoding her daughters’ birthdays into subtle patterns. What began as a personal project developed into the TouchDate™️ technique, a patent-pending design that translates meaningful dates into tactile patterns of dots in gold, diamonds or enamel. Each dot represents a number, allowing a specific date to be quietly encoded in the design: one half of the ring represents the month and the other the day, separated by a line symbolising the road travelled.
TRIT is an acronym for ‘The Road I’ve Traveled’, and each TouchDate ring includes this line separating the month and day as a symbol of that road. When rings are stacked, those lines can be lined up to represent the road the wearer has travelled and the meaningful dates along it. The raised dots are designed to be felt as much as seen, allowing the wearer to trace the date with their fingertips. Each ring is custom-made for a specific date chosen by the wearer.
At first glance the rings appear minimal, but every dot carries meaning—forming a discreet code that only the wearer truly understands.

At the core of TRIT is a fully personalised approach. Each piece is made to order, crafted in collaboration with the wearer so that every element is deliberate and distinctive. From TouchDate™ rings that encode meaningful dates to stackable enamel bands available in ten colours ranging from bold neons to classic tones, the designs are intended to be layered over time, with each addition marking a new chapter and each combination telling an evolving story.

The collection also features more sculptural designs. The Tire Ring, for example, draws inspiration from movement and travel, reimagining the classic eternity band with a textured, almost industrial appearance. The Sugar Cube and Ice Cube rings offer a more graphic take, with bold, structured pieces that can be stacked and personalised, symbolising moments with clarity and strength. Even the enamel numeric bracelets, displaying numbers from one to 100, provide another way to hold meaning, whether it’s a date, a milestone or something only the wearer understands.
The introduction of enamel marks a lively evolution for the brand, adding a playful energy to its typically understated language. Yet beneath the colour and form, the philosophy remains steady: jewellery as a way to stay connected to memory. Crafted using recycled metals, each piece also embodies a more conscious, contemporary approach to luxury—one that values not just its appearance but what it signifies.

Each dot represents a number, quietly encoding a meaningful date. To anyone else it may look like a simple ring—but for the person wearing it, it carries an entire memory.
Despite its growing international following, TRIT remains true to its quiet, personal nature. As Syquia herself states, “You can look at it and just see a ring, but for the person wearing it, it’s something completely different.” What may look simple is, in truth, deeply personal.
One client—a well-known American influencer—commissioned a ring to remember her sister after an untimely passing. She had considered getting a tattoo of the date but realised she didn’t want something that would invite questions about its meaning. Instead, she chose something more private—a ring encoding the date that only she understands.

Ultimately, TRIT is about more than just jewellery. It’s about meaning: an invitation to explore your own story through pieces meant to be worn, felt and remembered every day.
