High Jewelry

Looking down from the Vendôme column, the statue of Napoleon keeps watch over the Maison’s High Jewelry workshop. This secret place is where jewelers, gem-setters and polishers work each day to bring Chaumet’s creations to life, thus perpetuating ancestral techniques under the attentive eye of the 13th head of the Maison’s workshop. This precious virtuosity, which can only be reproduced by hand, has been passed on from workshop head to workshop head since the Maison was established in 1780.
