Stilled Life jadeite brooch

EDITOR'S REVIEW

This million-dollar masterpiece by Wallace Chan is part of what he refers to as his Buddhist art stage, which opened up a new chapter of jewellery creation. The Stilled Life brooch incorporates Chan’s patented thinning and luminosity-enhancing technology for jadeite - China’s most precious gemstone. The awe-inspiring brooch depicts the cicada insect, a powerful Chinese symbol of rebirth, whose imperial jadeite wings seem to flutter with a penetrating green colour and alluring brilliance.
