When I wear jewelry it needs to really mean something.

That's what I tried to create, even though they are new pieces. I wanted them to feel like very special pieces that you can hold on to for a long time. I didn't want them to be too high fashion, I wanted them to be more timeless.

I have never done jewelry before so, of course, I had an idea in mind, but I needed it to be feasible and I don't really know about the materials, like what's possible, what's not possible.

I don't buy jewelry just for the aesthetic side.

I collect jewelry for a story - so something I got on a trip or something I got from my family. You know it always needs to have a meaning for me.

I knew I was in good hands [with Didier Dubot] and we could accomplish whatever I had in mind.
