Welcome to the workshop
Since the creation of Helmut Paris,
Camille is passionate about designing strong, carefully crafted jewelry.
That is why, today, our production relies on
based on respect for traditional techniques and the use of quality raw materials.
Discover in this article the behind-the-scenes story of how your favorite pieces are made!
24k Recycled Gold
The gold in our gilding is 24k gold, recycled and made in France. 24k gold is pure gold. By comparison, 18k gold is composed of 75% gold and 25% a metal alloy.
999 Silver
The 999 silver we use to plate some of our pieces is composed of 99.9% silver. Its purity gives it unparalleled luster and brilliance.
Recycled plexiglass
Our clear plexiglass is 100% recycled. You can find it in its raw form or with exclusive designs.
Behind the scenes of manufacturing
- Each Helmut Paris piece of jewelry begins with a sketch in a notebook. Its shape, balance, and proportions come to life through paper trials conducted in our Parisian workshop.
- Our jewelry is then made from custom-cut brass pieces according to our technical specifications. These pieces are then assembled, glued, and soldered in our workshop.
Some complex parts are custom-cut by an Italian artisan company.
- Our parts, stems and clasps are then dipped in baths to be gilded with recycled 24k gold or plated with 999 silver.
Our gilder is also from Paris! His workshop is in the same neighborhood as ours.
- For our rings, which accompany your daily gestures, we carry out a 24k gold plating (3 microns) in order to optimize their robustness and durability over time.
- The plexiglass used in some of our jewelry is processed and cut by a small Parisian company. It is then meticulously assembled by hand in our workshop.
