The artist Jewel perhaps most admired in the world, Wallace Chan, get a goal. In London, as we have already mentioned here, presented a volume limited edition with images of his works, but also an exhibition of forty works, result of his personal Eden populated by butterflies, dragonflies, fish, insects and dragons. With Olympian calm of those who practice Zen Buddhism, but also with the tenacity of those who do not distract from the vices of success, the designer showed the greedy eyes of the visitors its titanium and jade jewelery, precious stones, and, above all, such skill in achieving its mini sculptures. Which are inimitable. It’s not an accident that Wallace Chan sometimes he builds the tools to be able to realize a particularly difficult jewel. Not to mention the stone cutting: its unique “Wallace cut” took 13 years of hard work.
Result: a jewel like a necklace of diamonds and jadeite called Great Wall, was sold in 2012 for 73.5 million dollars. But the biggest problem, with a living monument as Chan, is that his unique pieces are as precious as rare. Even the richest man in the world should wait for the elaborate creative path of the master. So even if you have a lot of money by, give up, take a deep breath and together with Wallace Chan say: Om.
