About Hélène M.
Remember when you were a child and random pebbles and little treasures all seemed so magical? They would end up in your pockets, waiting to be looked at, shared, admired. Today, I buy gemstones the way little me used to collect those little pebbles. Instead of my pocket, they end up in my collection.
With these gems, set in unique pieces, I want you to feel that same sense of wonder. That feeling of treasuring. A precious thing, meant to be worn, meant to be passed on as a future heirloom.
A piece you can wear everyday, or maybe on that one special occasion. There’s so much to celebrate, and I would love to make your dream jewel come to life!
Finding inspiration is in general a form of collecting for me: the collages I make from magazine pages or images that caught my eye make me collect shapes, contrasts and colours. The colour combinations I see during the days end up in a folder on my phone, or as a pastel gradient drawing on my wall. Plenty of inspiration comes form my everyday life: flaky paint on a railway pole, a faraway view during my travels, or even the colour of a neighbouring apartment building against the electric blue sky.
I’m always looking. Always collecting these little unremarkable, but still poetic bits and pieces. They all go in a little notebook that I carry with me wherever I go.
I love intense colours and unexpected beauty. With all of these elements I make unique pieces for my collection, but also custom work, tailored to you.
Each a piece of jewellery with its own story. Pieces for you to wear and to pass on to a next generation, a jewel to wear on that one very special occasion, or something that you never ever want to take off.
The doors to my atelier are open. Stop by for all your custom requests, unique jewellery, wedding and engagements rings.
I hope to see you soon!
Hélène
