The Paris Artisanal Jewelry Designers You Must Know

The Paris Artisanal Jewelry Designers You Must Know
Crafted with soul, worn with stories.

In a city that understands that accessories are attitude, jewelry is not mere decoration—it’s memory. Paris’s most captivating jewelry isn’t locked behind Place Vendôme glass or weighed down with logos. It’s handcrafted in sunlit ateliers, dreamt up in whispery workshops tucked behind courtyards, sculpted from emotion, mythology, and metal. These designers don’t follow trends—they forge legacy.

The Socialites have sifted through the glitter to bring you the artisanal Parisian jewelers who matter—each one bold, poetic, and irresistibly you-shaped.

Yannis Sergakis

Minimalism meets mythology

Greek-born but Paris-based, Yannis crafts delicate architectural pieces that echo ancient ruins and quiet opulence. His signature “Charnières” rings and ear cuffs feel both antique and ultra-modern. Diamond whisperers rather than shouters.

💎 Why you’ll love it: Discretion with presence—perfect for power minimalists

Annelise Michelson

Sculpture for the skin

Bold, sculptural, unapologetic. Annelise’s pieces are wearable art that curl, twist, and drape across the body like molten language. Think cuffs that command rooms, earrings that redefine the earlobe, and rings that don’t need stacking to be statements.

Charlotte Chesnais

The new geometry of femininity

Once at Balenciaga under Nicolas Ghesquière, Charlotte launched her own line of liquid metal jewelry that plays with balance and curve. Earrings loop around the ear like ribbon; bracelets slink up the arm like whispers.

Harpo

Paris meets the American Southwest

This Marais gem has been celebrating Navajo and Hopi artisans since 1971. It’s not “inspired by”—it’s in collaboration with. Think turquoise cuffs, silver feathers, and celestial pieces that radiate soul, not sparkle.

Goossens Paris

High craft with couture bloodline

Originally created for Coco Chanel herself, Maison Goossens blends baroque opulence with organic imperfection. Their artisanal pieces often use rock crystal, patinated gold, and medieval silhouettes. It’s like diving into a Byzantine dream.
