The Lion Rock Press is a Eurasian family business specialising in premium Hong Kong-inspired gifts and stationery. Founded 13 years ago by Claire Yates — whose family has been part of Hong Kong's paper trade for 120 years — the business was born from a simple and deeply personal conviction: that Hong Kong's culture, spirit, and identity deserve to be celebrated and preserved through beautiful, considered design.
What began as a collection of greeting cards and gift wrap has flourished into a premium gifting brand reaching customers worldwide, each product a carefully crafted piece of Hong Kong.
The brand takes its name from the iconic Lion Rock — a symbol of the resilience, determination, and community spirit of Hong Kong's people — and 'Press' from the family's roots in the paper trade. That spirit is woven into everything the business creates: from best-selling decorations featuring iconic Hong Kong imagery like red taxis and the Star Ferry, to bilingual games and their famous double-sided jigsaw puzzles.
The brand also works with Hong Kong's leading corporations and hotels, creating bespoke gifting solutions that carry genuine cultural meaning. Proudly serving as a platform for Hong Kong-based artists, authors, and illustrators, the brand amplifies local creative talent while honouring the city it calls home.
