Jewellery and Product Management
The intricate history of French jewelry-making finds its roots in Paris and the famous Place Vendôme, the site of the first significant jewelry brand's establishment in 1893. This historic site witnessed the creation of iconic pieces like the Cartier Trinity ring, Boucheron Quatre ring, Chaumet tiaras, and the Van Cleef & Arpels Zip necklace. These renowned houses have established themselves as leaders, creating pieces that blend creativity and technical mastery. France takes great pride in and cements its reputation through these renowned Parisian luxury brands, as well as the immense creativity fostered within the country's 2,000 jewelry studios and skilled artisans.
