the jewel
Alix draws her inspiration from antique jewelry, oriental ornaments and even religious symbols to imagine these collections that are as sensitive as they are contemporary. It is therefore not insignificant to recognize elements and details that inspired his porcelain objects.
The jewelry, in vermeil and gold, is designed by hand and worked like sculptures in Paris. Starting from a small, meticulously sculpted wax, Alix then reworks the metal model to imagine each piece. Once harmony is found, a mold is made from which the silver or gold proofs will be taken. On these precious metal proofs, the jeweler's job is to file the cast iron jets, braze the rings and findings, set the stones and polish the pieces. The antique medals, iconic of the House, are essential. They are available in necklaces, rings, earrings and bracelets. The fine stones which sometimes adorn these sets give them a burst of color.
Our jewelry is, for the most part, made in vermeil (silver plated with 5 microns of 18-carat gold) and on request, each piece of jewelry can be made in 18-carat (750/1000) gold. Some of our pieces are set with fine or precious stones.

Our Empreinte medals have been directly inspired by our Intailles collection: negatives of their motifs have been made so that the finesse of the engraving appears in relief, as opposed to the recessed engraving of the original Intailles. Our 18-carat gold medals can be personalized with the initials of your choice, a precious gift to seal bonds of love or filial ties.
Personalization is possible within one month of ordering.
