Michelle, in the atelier
N° 04 — The Atelier
Sourced with love, one piece at a time.
It started with shells in a jam jar — small treasures gathered on every beach trip as a child, then gem shows and rock fairs as a teenager. The collection has grown a little since.
Today, Vintage Paris Jewelry is a tiny atelier specialising in pieces from the 1800s through the late 20th century — Victorian, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, and Mid‑Century. Every locket, ring, and chain passes through my hands. If it needs restoring, I restore it. If it deserves a second life as something new, I remake it.
The goal is simple: to find a new home for jewelry someone once loved, and to make sure it’s loved again.
