Playful design and technical precision have always been part of our process. The jewellery is made from vitreous enamel and sterling silver, using techniques such as plique-à-jour and cloisonné. Designed for versatility, many pieces are double-sided or fully reversible.

Cloisonné is a vitreous enamelling technique we use that is believed to have originated in Ancient Egypt. The French term refers to a form of artisanal decoration in which fine strips of metal are applied to a metal surface in closed shapes called cloisonnés. Multiple thin layers of enamel are individually applied to the cloisonnés, and the piece is fired in the kiln after each application.
Plique-à-Jour (French: ‘letting in daylight’) is a vitreous enamelling technique we use in which enamel is applied into small cells with no backing and fired in a kiln. The powdered glass enamel is ground with water, and small amounts are applied to the cells cut from the metal. The enamel is suspended from the cells and kiln-fired. It is a challenging, labour-intensive technique. Transparent enamel is used so that the light can shine through the charms.
Jewellery Care
Enamel is a durable glass-like substance that is resistant to colour fading. Avoid contact with cleaning agents, perfumes and sanitisers. It is advisable to remove enamel rings if they are to come into contact with cleaning agents, as some of these can discolour the enamel. Keep the enamel jewellery in the box you received it in, or something similar, for protection. Enamel jewellery should never be put into an ultrasonic cleaner. Do not use jewellery cleaning fluids to clean enamel - use a soft toothbrush and warm water.
