Ten thousand babies wearing their own works

"I am a pessimist. Making jewelry is a good emotional release for me.

It was photography before, now it's jewelry. "

The jewelry designer has a strong sense of strength and a distance from politeness, but still does not care about the girl who shows her true self.

She seldom laughs and mentions that her students have a sweet smile from their hearts.

Her works are complex and changeable like her people, persistent and gorgeous, brave, but still strong, emotional, sad, and Oriental.

Everyone has the pessimism of everyone. Her feelings of catharsis in jewelry are regarded as sublimation of pessimism.

Her design has so many raindrops, pearls, diamonds, and yellow sapphires. They are hung in gold Pavilion pavilions under big, big and big ones, and on the fan side of platinum, butterflies and calla on the rocks, and huge heart-shaped emeralds.

The rain was left in her childhood memory: she was still a little girl, and her father asked her teacher to teach a dream of Red Mansions, and at night listening to the rain falling on the large lotus leaves of the pond in the yard, she would like to "stay left to listen to the rain."

She unconsciously turned them into her own style and became the dream that BaoBao Wan Fine Jewelry brought to the world.

The inspiration comes from the ring of "listening to the rain with remnant fruit".

STUDIO direct attack (F= "Feng Shangzhi" W= Wan baby)

F: what new works are you doing recently?

W: they have been busy with the "bottle" series for six months, and the English name is "China".

One of the eight auspicious elements of Buddhism is a treasure bottle. It is a symbol of purity and auspiciousness, and my name is baby, so I made such a series.

It can be seen that this is the earrings made of platinum inlaid diamonds and made into bottles. The bottle is a spray. I also have an unfinished work, which flows out of the bottle with many diamond chains.

F: before that, a bracelet also used the theme of the eight treasures of Buddhism.

W: Yes, it's a lotus bracelet made for Forevermark.

There is another symbol which is "victory building", which is a blessing, which implies the enlightening and wisdom of the law.

But I don't have many religious meanings with these symbols. I just respect the principles of Buddhism, which are very beautiful.

F: there is also a heart shaped ring with emerald. It has a diamond hanging. It gives a deep impression. It looks like a treasure umbrella.

W: This is really not true. I only used the Buddhist elements of the two works just now.

The inspiration for your work is from bamboo.

In this series, I particularly want to make a sense of 1920s. The beauty of that time was Art Deco, Oriental mysticism, and I wanted to make that kind of Chinese people sentimentally attached to beauty.

F: do you consciously emphasize the elements of Chinese and Chinese in design?

W: I will deliberately use some ancient Chinese elements in my works, such as bamboo and fans.

I have received more comprehensive education in the East and West. I would like to be a messenger of eastern and Western culture and art. I have this sense of mission.

F: there are many forms of Chinese elements, but the style you use looks gorgeous.

W: because I like to use diamonds. Diamonds can't be flashy.

But my next design will use more emerald, which is very different from my previous design.

Because with diamonds, you can design and look for materials. Jade is different from every stone. If you want to see it, touch it, make a design according to its temperament.
