Fine Jewellery Designer · Malaysia
Gan Soek Lan
Award-winning designs shaped by hand, gemstone by gemstone — where traditional craftsmanship meets a devotion to natural beauty.
The Designer
A Story Set in Stone
Born and raised in Port Dickson, Negeri Sembilan, Gan Soek Lan discovered her craft through formal training at the Chin Jewellery Art Centre in Kuala Lumpur, where she earned her diploma in jewellery design.
What began as a study of gemstones, metal and form has grown into a body of work defined by patience, precision and an instinct for natural beauty — the same instinct that would go on to earn her national recognition at just 25 years old.

Recognition
MIJF Jewellery Design Awards, 2012
At the Malaysia International Jewellery Fair’s Jewellery Design Awards, judged on the theme “Natural of Earth” against more than 200 entries from design schools across Asia, Gan Soek Lan swept three honours in a single year.
Most Outstanding Award
Awarded by the highest number of visitor votes cast at the fair — the top honour of the competition.
“Crystallisation of Love”
A necklace inspired by a courting pair of fluttering butterflies.
“Rainbow After Rain”
Multi-coloured sapphires, aquamarines, white diamonds and a peacock Tahitian pearl set in 18k white gold.
The win carried a cash prize, trophy and certificate, along with a scholarship to study at the Gemmological Institute of America (GIA) in Bangkok, Thailand — training she completed through GIA’s Graduate Diamonds program and Diamond Grading Lab Class.
The Craft
Drawn Before It Is Made
Every design begins on paper — rendered by hand in gouache, gemstone by gemstone, before a single stone is set or metal cast. It is a slower, deliberate way of working, one that lets colour, proportion and light be resolved on the page first.
This hand-drawn discipline is the same practice behind “Crystallisation of Love” and “Rainbow After Rain” — and it remains the starting point for every commission today.
