About Wallace Chan
Today recognized as jewelry creator, artist and philosopher, Wallace Chan founded his own gemstone carving workshop in 1974, when he was 17.
In 1987, he invented the “Wallace Cut”, an illusionary carving technique that transcends dimensions. As a result, he was crowned the “Carving Prodigy from Asia” by European media. In 2001, after a decade immersing in Buddhist art, he created the Great Stupa for Fo Guang Shan, Taiwan.
Chan also spent 8 years to experiment with titanium, the most bio-friendly metal known to date. He surprised BASELWORLD 2007 with a series of jewelry creations featuring ethereal titanium structures, the technical secrets of which he later unveiled to the world.
