A jeweller’s journey,
from Paris to Vincennes
Franco-Colombian, I root my identity and brand in green, the colour representing the natural environment of my native Colombia.
As a young graduate in Business Administration, I decided to specialise in Environmental and Urban Management in Chile. Then, thanks to an inter-university exchange programme, I completed my master’s degree in France, fulfilling my dream: living in Paris.
MY JOURNEY IN PARIS
First, Paris, the City of Light, offered me new professional and personal perspectives, which indeed provided me with a rich cultural exchange and also allowed me to quickly gain highly valued professional experience in economic management and business organisation, working as a manager.
MY DESIRE TO BECOME A JEWELLER
Passionate about creative projects and gifted with strong manual skills, I decided to launch my own jewellery brand. The idea took shape during the global health crisis.
To make this project a reality, I chose to retrain professionally. In 2021, I enrolled in the Art and Technique of Jewellery program at La Haute Ecole de Joaillerie de Paris..
MY TRAINING IN CHASING
Then, I undertook an intensive training in metal chasing with Francisco Javier Avila Maye, Master Chaser and Art Goldsmith in Villejuif.. This little-known technique captivated me. It brings a unique botanical decoration to my future collections
REDISCOVERING MY ROOTS
After obtaining my diploma in June 2022, I decided to return to Colombia. I reconnected with my family and friends, who greatly supported me in this new venture.
This trip allowed me to reconnect with my culture, craftsmanship, and natural environment. Additionally, while seeking out key players in jewellery in Colombia, I discovered the Colombian School of High Jewellery jewellery in Colombia, I discovered the Colombian School of High Jewellery, the Colombian Institute of Gemmology, companies specialising in Colombian emeralds, and the filigree technique.
MY RETURN TO PARIS AND
THE CREATION OF MY FIRST JEWELLERY COLLECTION
With my mind full of ideas and a book of contacts brimming, I returned to Paris. At 44, a new chapter of my life began. I founded my business and brand. My first jewellery collection, titled "Colombian Landscapes,"showcases the tree in all its splendour and beauty. It reflects my fascination with nature and the fusion of cultures that define me.
"Fabriqué à Paris" Label
In 2024, I decided to apply for the prestigious "Fabriqué à Paris" label.This label honours handcrafted creations made within the French capital.
My collection The Trees of Paris was awarded for the 2025 edition. It is a true honour for me, as a jeweller inspired by Parisian landscapes and their abundant plant life.
This collection was designed and crafted in my workshop, in the heart of Paris. It pays tribute to the city’s emblematic trees. These trees are silent witnesses to urban life, history, and the changing seasons.
Each jewel tells the story of a walk. It captures a suspended moment, a natural emotion within the city.
This label marks a meaningful step in my journey. It recognises my commitment as a jeweller artisan in Paris, and my deep love for this unique city.
From Paris to Vincennes, a new creative breath
After several years of training and creating in Paris, my workshop has now found new roots in Vincennes. A town with a rich royal heritage, Vincennes inspires me with its quiet beauty and peaceful atmosphere, between history and nature.
Just steps away from the château that once welcomed the kings of France, I now create surrounded by trees, birdsong, flowers... and a surprisingly lively cultural scene. The Parc Floral, artisan workshops, markets and exhibitions, all of this nourishes my creative world with a renewed, grounded energy.
My new goal: to earn the “Created in Vincennes” label, a mark of local excellence and commitment to the city’s artisan community. It’s a natural continuation of my Parisian path, with a new gentleness, full of meaning.
