Meet the Founder
The granddaughter of goldsmiths and bronze workers, the founder grew up among workbenches, observing and absorbing the meticulous techniques that transform raw metal into works of art. This early immersion in the world of creation shaped her path and forged her vision of the craft. In 2022, she decided to carry on her family expertise by launching her own jewelry brand. Drawing on her experience in consulting, she developed her own design and manufacturing process, incorporating eco-responsibility and innovation (R&D) to help change mindsets. Her goal is to show that it is possible to own a beautiful French jewelry piece that is sustainable and affordable, without harming the environment, so that it can be passed down from generation to generation.
About the Brand
Phyllo is a French and responsible fashion jewelry brand. The founder draws, designs, and manufactures her jewelry collections in her Paris workshops with her artisans. She stands out by allowing her customers to personalize their jewelry (e.g., choice of stone, size adjustment), create a piece that reflects their personality, and repair damaged jewelry instead of buying a new one. These services make each piece of jewelry unique and deeply personal.
Eco-Responsible Impact
Environmental impact: Each piece of jewelry is the result of a rigorous artisanal process designed to minimize its environmental impact. In her workshops, the founder oversees every step: initial design, 3D prototyping, casting, assembly, and finishing. This innovative process, focused on quality and sustainability, combines traditional techniques with modern innovations such as 3D technology to create original and sophisticated pieces. The materials are carefully selected: almost all alloys come from France, and the settings come from Europe. Through this model, the brand rethinks fashion jewelry by combining innovation with environmental commitment.
The Brand's Values
♻️ Recycling ↓
Thanks to its repair and transformation service, the brand gives old jewelry a second life by either repairing it or melting down the gold to create a new piece.
🌀 Zero-Waste Lifestyle ↓
The brand avoids overproducing its jewelry by manufacturing it in small batches. It also tracks all its components to reduce its environmental impact and raw material waste.
👤 Expertise ↓
Its expertise is recognized by the French Chamber of Trades and Crafts and the French Institute of Expertise. Each creation follows traditional French jewelry-making techniques. Every stage of jewelry creation is done by hand by the founder and her artisans: design, 3D modeling, casting, polishing, plating, soldering, stone setting, enameling, and assembly.
🇫🇷 Made in France ↓
The jewelry is imagined, designed, and manufactured in her workshops in Paris, France.
