Anabela Chan is the first fine jewellery designer in the world to champion laboratory-grown
gemstones and recycled metals, paired with high jewellery design and artisanal
craftsmanship; always driven by a focus on ethical and sustainable innovations.

Born in Hong Kong and raised in the UK from age 10, Anabela trained as an architect at
University College London, and practiced with Lord Richard Rogers at New York’s Ground

led her to transition into fashion design for the next five years, before returning to the Royal
College of Art to train as a jeweller with a Master of Arts in Goldsmithing & Jewellery.

Innovation Ambassador for Great Britain and Visiting Lecturer at Royal College of Art. In
