1880-1910 :
The Belle Epoque
It was with exceptional creativity inspired by the enchantment of nature that Joseph Chaumet established himself as the absolute Master of the Belle Epoque. With his elegant creations, he attracted a royal and aristocratic clientele. Aigrettes and tiaras, social emblems and fashion accessories, became a very important part of the firm’s activity.
