A landmark year for designer Cindy Chao, 20 years just floated by like a dragonfly in flight.
We’ve long covered—and not so secretly coveted—the exquisite works of designer Cindy Chao for years now as her sculptural, nature-inspired, museum-worthy jewels have been a point of fascination and debate: Is it jewellery, or is it art?
Her jewels have appeared in the pages of Robb Report Hong Kong’s annual Best of the Best, and intermittently in various iterations of Robb Report globally since 2012, such sporadic bursts of inspired creations finding a safe haven in the Best in Jewellery pages with increasing frequency. Chao’s earrings can be seen on the lobes of Academy-Award-winning actresses, her famed brooches on the lapel of gentlemen as they hit the red carpet. Chao’s singular sensations have also appeared in capital museums, guarded in enclosed glass cases, glimmering under a spotlight. How many jewellers can state that their work is part of the permanent collections at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, and the Smithsonian in Washington, DC?
