It all began with a fascination for fire and light.
I discovered grand feu enamel in the heart of Geneva's jewelry and watchmaking workshops – this ancient, demanding, and almost forgotten technique where enamel powder, ground by hand and fired at over 800°C, reveals colors of unparalleled depth and intensity. Each piece is a miracle: fire transforms matter into vibrant, eternal bursts that withstand time.
As an engineer by training, I have always been drawn to precise technical processes where science meets art. But grand feu enamel went further: it was poetic alchemy, a dialogue between human mastery and the unpredictability of the flame.I felt the need to revive this technique in contemporary creations – far from classical motifs, focused on individual and modern expression.
Eclats d'Email was born from this desire: to create jewelry that is not merely ornamental, but statements of identity. The first collection, the Dog Tags, draws inspiration from reimagined military plates – symbols of strength, character, and what defines us deeply. Each pendant is imagined, designed, and handcrafted in our Swiss workshops by master enamellers who perpetuate a rare and precious craft. Today, Eclats d'Email celebrates the union of centuries-old tradition and bold design. Every piece is unique, numbered, 100% Swiss Made, and carries within it those bursts of light born from fire.
Thank you for being part of this adventure.
