Accident jewelry
The designer, Violaine Febvret, revisits her geometric heritage to let the materials speak for themselves. She begins with molten metal in free and natural forms.

The ‘Thunderbolt’ cuff came about from a prototype in wax which unfortunately or rather fortunately broke.” Imperfection as ultimate beauty.
