ABOUT
Violette Joaillerie is a fine jewellery brand that finds its inspiration in the coastal charm of Marseille and the artisanal heritage of Jaipur. Established in 2023 by Violette, the brand embodies a fusion of cultures and craftsmanship, reflecting her passion for adventure and a deep appreciation for quality.
Driven by an insatiable curiosity fueled by her travels, Violette relentlessly seeks excellence in every aspect of her creations.
The sea has always held a profound significance in the life of designer-founder Violette. From her time working for the French Naval Defense selling submarines, to her current pursuit of crafting ocean-inspired pieces.
After a career in the corporate world, Violette's innate creativity and her love for the underwater world beckoned her towards jewellery design. But it was her serendipitous journey to Jaipur, the vibrant gemstone capital of the world, that truly ignited her creative spark. Surrounded by the kaleidoscope of colours and the intricate carving techniques for which Jaipur is renowned, Violette found herself drawn to the vibrant hues and rich cultural tapestry of this enchanting city.
Blending her Western sensibilities with the traditional craftsmanship of Jaipur, Violette set out to create her debut collection that would capture the essence of the underwater world in all its splendour.
Collaborating with skilled artisans in Marseille and master stonecutters in Jaipur, Violette gave life into her designs. Her creations, ranging from fish and octopuses to seahorses and starfish, are meticulously crafted from vibrant multi-colored tourmalines and aquamarines. Each piece is a unique embodiment of the sea's essence.
Balancing her time between France and Jaipur, Violette continues on a perpetual journey seeking inspiration and innovation techniques to infuse into her evolving collections.
