Hi! I’m Jacqueline Yeap.

I’m a jeweler trained by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), and for as long as I can remember I’ve been fascinated by gemstones, craftsmanship, and the stories that jewellery carries with it.

Over the years I’ve worked with certified diamonds, engagement rings, and collectors searching for pieces that hold both beauty and lasting value. I previously founded Mischava Jewellery, and have also had the privilege of representing buyers in specialised auction markets for fine jewellery and rare stones.

What I enjoy most about this work is helping people mark meaningful moments in their lives — whether that’s finding that “I do” diamond, creating an engagement ring, or discovering a piece that feels like it was always meant to be theirs.

At House of Bibique, I bring together my love for heritage, fine craftsmanship, and gemological experience to curate jewellery that will one day become part of someone else’s story.

Heritage

Growing up between Singapore and Penang, Jacqueline was drawn to the textures of Peranakan life — her grandmother in her kebaya, the quiet rhythm of rempah simmering in the kitchen, and traditions now carried only as a memory.

What stayed with her was the understanding that beauty was never incidental. From the lacework of a kebaya to the fastening of a kerosang brooch, each detail reflected time, skill, and intention. Pieces like rose-cut intan diamonds and heirloom jewellery were worn with purpose and passed down as part of a family’s story.

Jacqueline is also the great-granddaughter of Yeap Chor Ee, the “Grand Old Man of Penang,” whose legacy remains a quiet source of admiration and inspiration to her. In her own way, House of Bibique honours that inheritance — preserving beautiful pieces from the past while creating heirlooms for generations to come.
