LA BOHEME. The story of Ethnic jewelry
I want to introduce you to the project “La Boheme Jewelry", directly inspired by these joyful summer holidays spent outside in nature.
Nature is a place of incredible energy and inspiration, full of life, colors, shapes, etc.
I realized that I wanted to create jewelry, but not in a classically industrial way, but something more intimate, unusual, and powerful.
La Boheme in French, means a person with artistic or literary interests who disregards conventional standards of behavior.
It seems to me that artistic people, by definition, live pretty unconventionally since they are very creative people.
As we say in France, life is an “art de vivre”, or "art of life”, how could it be conventional ?
Living is always a way to create yourself, as is my jewelry.
In France, we believe in a simple and minimalistic style, but adding jewelry is like coloring your basics with personality.
This project is about uniqueness—the uniqueness of being so extensive in expression.
I aspire to only reveal even more of the beauty of all women in their full essence : their natural beauty.
The creation of this jewelry came from the desire to reveal a balancing alliance between uniqueness, quality, and design between our roots and modern society.
For these reasons, LA BOHEME always tries to incorporate components of natural origin into an elaborate design.
All of them are made HANDMADE, with a big portion of love and care.
The key point is the same : limited edition.
From minimalist to extravagant ethnic, from funny and cute, even childish, to more elegant or classic, I am sure that you should discover here a piece of you, an accessory that echoes your vibes !
Wearing this kind of jewelry is similar to the feeling of “Voler de ses propres ailes” which means flying with your own wings.
Under this metaphor, this French expression expresses the idea that, in order to become free and independent, we have to have our own wings.
It depends on us to take a leap of faith and open them.
This is a hopeful wish to remind us not to be afraid to follow our dreams and go towards what we really want and truly aspire to.
“In the south of France, when I was a child, I remember walking alone along the sea, between the sun and the waves.
There was no one around when suddenly I saw a couple peacefully sitting on the shore. I could not help but notice that the girl’s swimsuit was made entirely of shells and beads. It really fascinated me !
I was amazed at how accessories in clothes can completely change a whole look."
Day after day, I kept small ideas about jewelry and never let them go.
Oh, I was ready to forget something really important.
This creation finally came true after a few years of living and working in one of the most special cities.
Saint Petersburg, called the Venice of the North, is considered the cultural capital of Russia, and it’s a place full of art and inspiration.
If you are interested in traveling, you will be able to find a special blog on this magical city, and I will probably write many more about...
