Lebourdais
Graduated in gemology, Gaïd Lebourdais has demonstrated manual skill since childhood.
After an internship at Boucheron place Vendôme, she joined a company creating jewels for High Jewellery and Watchmaking with gems (Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Vacheron Constantin). From there comes her taste for prestigious pieces, know-how and high-standards. Contemplating an exceptional piece of art coming to life under her fingers is a privilege.
The craft she has invested in opens up the field of creativity, both in technique and style.
The creations of the House are strongly inspired by nature, volumes, manuscripts. The idea comes alive when she encounters a rare stone, a Boulder Opal from Australia, a Padparadscha sapphire or a tsavorite garnet ... These stones, which she has been selecting with passion for 30 years, still fascinate her as much as ever.
The rings are designed with great precision, the effects of materials are sought after. The alliance of stones is sealed in its colour, vivacity, size, movement. The gold is sculped, carefully carved to magnify the gems in a set of colour gradients.
Symbolism is also very present, like the "Day and Night" carved ring°, which is decorated with flowers and animals. The ring is dual: on one side The Day is symbolized by the Rooster standing on a Sunflower, on the other side The Night is symbolized by the Owl resting on a Thought.
