Dream Light Water by Wallace Chan
Celebrating the bespoke insect, butterfly and fish inspired jewellery of Hong Kong-based designer Wallace Chan, Rizzoli releases the Dream Light Water in January 2016. Documenting 86 works in large-scale black-box close up photography with expert descriptions by gemologist and historian Juliet de la Rochefoucauld, the new monograph channels the same attention to detail Chan has employed since he was seven-years-old.
The master-jeweller combines East in West while employing leitmotifs and carved gemstone. His signature Wallace-cut has garnered him worldwide acclaim but the designer-cum-craftsmen continues to innovate. Dream Light Water will launch across the globe in January 2016, with a pre-launch in New York this October.
