Charlotte Chesnais created her first piece of jewelry whilst working alongside Nicolas Ghesquière as a fashion designer for Balenciaga, where she designed a multi-cuff that played with proportion and was conceived to be stacked.

Midway between a jewelry classic and an inspired reworking, the bangle carried the seed of the Charlotte Chesnais brand: continuous, clean lines, an understanding of the body and a confident singularity.

Nearly six years after that first step, she set up her own house in 2015.

Each piece of jewelry is based on a model handcrafted in the Parisian workshop they have been working with since the beginning. Charlotte Chesnais need this close relationship with these impressive craftsmen, the only ones able to bring to life her hastily drawn sketches. They work together to find these shapes, they twist, weld and hammer them.
