Margaux Clavel

Taking inspiration from the past - mainly architectural ornaments, textures and patterns -  and using a unique cast metal gemstone aesthetic and bright contrasting colours, Margaux creates modern textured heirlooms with a playful take on traditional jewellery pieces. Growing up in France and travelling as a child, Margaux was captivated by the opulence of sacred buildings: the overloaded altars, the smell of beeswax and incense, the carved columns, the coloured stained glass, the gold frames; by the rich archaeological museum collections, by the tales of ancient civilisations. From the stories of her grandparents’ childhood in Egypt, to the days her father spent working in a glass cutting workshop, this is where her love for precious antique treasures and traditional craftsmanship was born.
