1. HOW DID YOU GET INTO THE JEWELRY INDUSTRY?
I have been obsessed with jewelry for as long as I can remember. When I was six years old, I would wear my mother’s and grandmother’s jewelry just to walk around the house - I loved playing dress up. I’ve always looked up to women who had impeccable style, but most of them simply had a great jewelry collection. Creating jewelry was a natural process for me, so making a career out of it came very naturally.

2. WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT JEWELRY?
Shapes, textures and infinite possibilities. The idea that one piece can be a reflection of your mood, your personality. I love that jewelry always tells a story. Some days it can be a nice one, and you will want to wear something bold, and others it will be a quiet story, and you will stand out with just one pinky ring.

3. WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO START YOUR COMPANY?
Independence.

4. WHERE ARE YOU BASED?
Paris, but more precisely, on the left bank.

5. WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
Paris, but I have roots in Antibes, south of France. I love the idea of being from a place where the sun shines a lot - I think that makes me a dreamer.

11. DO YOU HAVE A PIECE(S) OF JEWELRY YOU WEAR EVERY DAY AND IF SO, WHY?
I wear a lot of jewelry every day, I rotate between chains, rings, chokers and earrings. I wear jewelry to go out for a walk or a coffee - I feel naked without them. My pieces are an extension of myself - they mirror my personality. I’m very outgoing, I love to engage, and I love to brighten people’s moods. I believe that what you wear sets the tone of a conversation.

12. ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL STYLE.
Daring.

13. LAST PIECE OF JEWELRY YOU BOUGHT AND LOVED?
A bespoke round diamond ring my atelier made for me. I initially designed it as a gift to my aunt who is big on traveling. The shape reminds me of the earth and the encrusted diamond at the heart of it symbolizes love. It is a beautiful piece I wanted for myself; it felt like a souvenir you buy on a special trip abroad, only much more precious.
