We "cut" the intricate techniques of traditional artistry from the past and "paste" it into the center of contemporary youth culture.
ABOUT CUTANDFOUND
CUT & PASTE / LOST & FOUND
Of the past, for the future.
A digital-age homage to the past
Born from an art project, CUT/FOUND operates at the intersection of heritage craftsmanship and modern youth culture. We take familiar, ordinary objects apart and rebuild them using centuries-old techniques—elevating the overlooked into a new standard of luxury.
An independent point of view. Since 2023.
01 / THE WAY WE SEE ITA familiar world. A different perspective.
An artistic deconstruction of everyday life, in the name of jewelry.
LOST & FOUND
The Modern Odyssey
We capture the thrill of rediscovering the ordinary. By excavating the overlooked—a soda tab, a nylon shoelace—we reclaim what was lost to the background of life and elevate it into sculptural interventions for the body.

Wear it your way.
CUT/FOUND — beyond labels, beyond expectations.

THE DESIGNER
Jeffrey Tao
Born of a life anchored between Southwestern China and California, Jeffrey Tao’s work evokes a mood of subversive nostalgia.
Rejecting the confines of gender and expectation, his designs act as physical manifestations of living beyond labels. Now leading CUT/FOUND, he ensures each piece is carefully hand-engineered—translating the wisdom of traditional craft into a modern language of luxury.
The familiar, elevated.
