Our Story

Capablanca emerges from a spring of passion and devotion that has thrived across generations. The remarkable journey begins with Farng Lang Fou, a woman whose passion for fine jewelry transformed a simple hobby into a lifelong pursuit. Born in 1937, she began curating fine jewelry at the tender age of 14. What began as a simple pastime soon evolved into a passion that not only sustained herself and her family but most of all became a beautiful medium through which she connected deeply with her loved ones.

Her uncompromising nature and profound appreciation to the art of fine jewelry was evident in piece she touched. On the foundations of her success in jewelry, her family ventured and thrived in expansive industries such as fashion, science, and film and entertainment. Throughout her life, even as the world moved around her, Farng Lang Fou passionately nurtured her knowledge, spirit, and experience in jewelry. She imbued her love of jewelry into each of her children and grandchildren. Her grandson, Nickson Chong, fondly remembers the times they spent together - him playing chess studying the games of Jose Raul Capablanca while she sorted and polished her collection. These moments, filled with the scent of polished gold and the sounds of chess pieces, left an inedible mark on Nickson's memory.

When Farng Lang Fou passed away, Nickson found himself drawn back to the world of fine jewelry. To honor his grandmother's legacy and the profound influence she had on his life, he decided to continue her passion.
