Modern Transparency

Objects in Suspension


Jewelry and watches play with light, volume and material purity to create pieces that are both modern and disruptive.

Glass, diamond, crystal and plexiglass find their way into these creations, bringing an airy aesthetic and a refined sense of elegance.

Transparency does not seek to impress. It captivates through sophisticated restraint, through a luminosity free of ostentation. Clear materials interact with light, reflections and skin, establishing a subtle relationship with the body. Rigid bracelets in crystalline plexiglass, blown-glass rings, skeleton watch dials or sapphire crystal cases appear to float on the skin, weightless and unobtrusive.





Transparency, Purity and Modernity


Their limpid appearance gives jewelry and watches a sense of lightness and fluidity, as if suspended between matter and void.

This trend reconciles innovation with craftsmanship. Plexiglass — a modern, technical material — meets the traditional savoir-faire of diamond setting and crystal cutting. The result is a distinctly contemporary aesthetic, where simplicity gives way to emotion and contemplation.

Beyond aesthetics, transparency becomes an invitation to revelation and honesty: revealing what is essential, letting light in, enhancing material without concealment. In a world often opaque and complex, these jewelry pieces and watches act as a clear breath — discreet yet radiant.
