FAQ
Where does your jewels come from ?
All my jewels are handcrafted in my little workshop in France. I use quality materials selected by me and natural gemstones that have not been stained or chemically transformed.
What metal and materials do you use to create your jewellery?
I work with stainless steel gilded with fine gold or gold-plated. It is known for its hypoallergenic properties, high strength and durability. Moreover, it does not oxidize over time, unlike other metals. I also use a lot of brass, that I solder and saw myself.
