Wallace Chan

This is the official YouTube channel of the artist, innovator and sculptor, Wallace Chan (陳世英).

Wallace Chan began as a gemstone carver in 1973 at the age of 16.

By the 2010s, he was world-renowned as a jewelry artist and innovator. His creativity and curiosity have driven him to develop several innovations: The Wallace Cut; mastery of titanium in jewelry-making; a patented jadeite luminosity-enhancing technology; the invention of elaborate gemstone settings without metal claws; the mysterious Secret Abyss, in which over a thousand emeralds were set inside a block of rutilated quartz through a 6.5mm opening; and most recently, The Wallace Chan Porcelain, a material five times harder than steel.

In 2019, his jewelry creation, A New Generation, was added to the permanent collection of the British Museum. It is the first Chinese contemporary jewelry art piece to be included in the museum’s permanent collection.
