Wallace Chan

Wallace Chan (Chinese: 陈世英; pinyin: Chén Shìyīng) is a Hong Kong–based jewellery artist and sculptor. He is known for creating intricate designs within carved gemstones. He is the mastermind behind the creation of what has been called the world’s most expensive diamond necklace. Chan is also known as an innovator. He invented the Wallace Cut, an illusionary carving technique, in 1987; a jade cutting and polishing technique in 2002, and The Wallace Chan Porcelain, a porcelain five times stronger than steel, in 2018, after seven years of research. His first porcelain creation, A New Generation (Ring), is in the permanent collection of The British Museum. He is the first contemporary Chinese jewellery artist to be part of the museum's collection.
