In the late 1960s and 1970s, jewelers connected with Nature directly, LEAVING GEMSTONES UNFACETED AND FREE FORM. THEY LEFT DIAMONDS FOR AMETHYSTS AND CITRINES.

We are collectorS OF JEWELRY MADE BY MAISON CHAUMET DURING THE 1950S - 1980S, designed by Pierre Sterle and HOUSE DESIGNER René Morin, AMONG OTHERS. Some of it WAS for the unique L’Arcade collection, appealing to the more on-trend, design-conscious, younger buyers who emerged in the 1970s. THIS HOUSE, KNOWN FOR ITS ASSOCIATION WITH THE HOUSE OF NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, combined ITS EXCLUSIVE, TRADITIONAL TECHNIQUES AND RADICAL 1970s DESIGNS IN HEAVILY TEXTURED GOLD AND MIRROR POLISHED GOLD TO CREATE JEWELS THAT WILL be immediately recognizable FOREVER.
