The Ambition

Curated for sensitive ears

Driven by my personal experience with nickel allergy, I started Dear Truc back in 2022 to help raise awareness about metal sensitivity. My goal to be able to create beautiful jewellery pieces that everyone, including those with metal sensitivity can enjoy. Whether you are allergic to certain metals or not, lets work together and make one that you can finally wear and love!

What is Truc?

Despite it being my name, the etymology of Trúc is actually of Vietnamese origin that translates to a type of bamboo! It is known for it's strength and flexibility to adapt to their surroundings, giving meaning to my art pieces as it continues to evolve, as I delve deeper into my own creative journey!

Meet the Maker

Hi, I'm Truc, the artist behind Dear Truc.

For as long as I could remember, I had always wanted to get into the creative field. Growing up, I had always love anything creative and hands on. Drawing, colouring, origami or just helping Dad around the house!

I decided to pursue jewellery making after moving to Melbourne because of a few reasons. Whilst being allergic to nickel, finding jewellery that I can wear and also in my style was very difficult to find. I love dainty yet statement pieces but unfortunately, most are made of out 304 SS. I wanted to be able to create jewellery that I can wear and also help others who also have some sort of metal allergy! Metal allergy ranges soo much from person to person and I find it quite fascinating trying to figure out which metal my customers can and cannot wear! I guess you can say I love to learn. It is one of a weird quirk of mine where I try to take in as much info as I can!

Beside that learning quirk, my hobbies ranges from hiking, eating, cooking and playing online PC games!
