JNA July/ August 2023

JNA 40th ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL 42 | JNA July/August 2023 One of the pioneers of the pearl trade, Robert Wan brought the alluring Tahitian pearl to the forefront of the international jewellery industry. Since his first encounter with Tahitian pearls in 1973, Wan has dedicated his life to producing, promoting and elevating the gem in the eyes of the public. In 1984, he acquired the South Marutea atoll in Polynesia’s Tuamotu Gambier archipelago, whose pristine conditions enabled the cultivation of Tahitian pearls of outstanding lustre, size and colour. In 1998, he started joining Hong Kong pearl auctions, bringing the “Robert Wan” brand of Tahitian pearls to more players in the international market. Known as the “Emperor of Tahitian Pearls,” Wan has firmly cemented his indisputable standing as a pioneering great in the annals of the gem, from developing innovative pearling techniques and building a reputation for exceptional Tahitian pearls to establishing the Robert Wan Pearl Museum in Papeete and creating his own luxury pearl jewellery line. His namesake brand, Robert Wan Tahiti, defined luxury pearl jewellery to generations of consumers and, to this day, inspires jewellers and designers seeking to imbue their creations with sophistication, elegance and calm confidence. The brand’s exquisite collections of top-tier Tahitian pearl jewellery have won over high-end consumers around the world. One of Wan’s proudest achievements was when his Tahitian pearls received the prestigious Gemological Institute of America certificate, elevating them to the same status as diamonds and other precious gems. 作为珍珠行业的先驱之一,温惠仁将迷人的大溪地珍珠带到了国际珠 宝行业的前沿。他自1973年首次接触大溪地珍珠以来,便积极投入生 产和推广,以及提升这种瑰宝在大众心目中的地位。 在1984年,他收购了位于玻里尼西亚的土阿莫土-甘比尔群岛的南马鲁提阿 环礁,其纯净天然的环境有利于培育散发无论光泽、大小和颜色皆出众的大溪 地珍珠。 他在1998年开始参与香港地区的珍珠拍卖会,将“Robert Wan”品牌的大溪 地珍珠推向国际舞台。 温惠仁被誉为“大溪地珍珠之王”,从开发创新的养珠技术,为大溪地珍珠建 立卓越声誉,以至在帕皮提建立Robert Wan珍珠博物馆,创建自家奢华珍珠首 饰系列等,均逐步巩固了他在宝石行业史册上的伟大先驱地位。 他的同名品牌Robert Wan Tahiti为几代消费者重新定义奢华珍珠首饰,至今 仍然启发了不少珠宝商和设计师,将品位、优雅和沉稳自信注入首饰作品之中。 该品牌的顶级大溪地珍珠首饰精致绝伦,赢得了环球高端消费者的赞赏。 最令他引以为傲的成就之一,就是其大溪地珍珠产品荣获GIA美国宝石研究 院证书,将它们提升至与钻石和其他珍贵宝石同等的地位。 Through a lifetime devoted to the cultivation and promotion of Tahitian pearls, Robert Wan catapulted the beloved gem to lofty heights in the luxury jewellery world. 温惠仁毕生致力培育和推广大溪 地珍珠,将这个备受热爱的宝石 品种提升至奢华珠宝世界的崇高 位置。 Robert Wan 温惠仁 Founder 创办人 Robert Wan Tahiti Staunchest advocate of Tahitian pearls 热心推广大溪地珍珠
