Art is tic gems

In the summer of 2008, the 23-year-old Feng Ji graduated from the China Academy of Art and wanted to study sports car design at the ArtCenter College of Design in Los Angeles. But she failed to get a visa to go to the United States.

Later, she applied to the University of the Arts London where she was admitted to learn jewelry design.

"Sports car design sounds cool and trendy. But I then persuaded myself that no woman does not like jewelry," says Feng, some 10 years after she established her own high jewelry brand Feng J in Paris.

After opening her first store in Shanghai in April, she will soon open a jewelry salon at Place Vendome in Paris.

Now, the renowned Paris art and jewelry dealer, the Karry Berreby Gallery, has signed a contract to showcase her work at PAD London, the world's leading fair for contemporary art, design and decorative arts, in October and PAD Geneva in January 2019.
