Jean Dinh Van was born in 1927 in Boulogne-Billancourt, France. His father, a Vietnamese married to a Breton woman, worked as a lacquer artisan. Dinh Van joined Cartier in 1946, where he learned the trade of jewelry craftsman in the great tradition during ten years.

In 1965, Jean Dinh Van opened his own jewelry workshop on the Place Gaillon in Paris. The stylistic themes of his jewelry radically set him apart from the traditional world of jewelry. In 1967, he created the square 2-pearl ring with Pierre Cardin, now exhibited at the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris. In his desire to shake up the traditional codes of French jewelry, Jean Dinh Van chose to market his creations not at jewelery stores, but in the gift departments of the large retail chain, Publicis, in France.
