An exclusive realm, where patience, expert gestures and meticulous work are king. Jewelers\u2019 talent give life to designers\u2019 fancy creations \u2013 but this is all out of sight. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The arts and craft of a master jeweler<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Upon entering l\u2019Atelier de Benoit, the visitor is first struck by a lively and busy atmosphere. Music playing on the radio, tools clinking and clanking in a joyful chant, and conversations over \u2013 this is the essence of working days. <\/span><\/p>\n

Benoit and co-workers constantly exchange ideas and suggestions, enriching one another while adjusting or polishing the finest pieces. Meticulous work is key to perfection: here, liquid gold pours gently into a carefully chosen mould. There, sparkly gemstones bounce on their velvet bed until being snapped \u2013 the jeweler will then set them into a bigger frame.

An immersive day at the jeweler\u2019s shop is key to dissect, understand and closely monitor all steps of the jewelry making process, thus embedding this crucial phase into a bigger picture of market and industry flows. An immersive day is key to become fluent with the vernacular jargon of jewelry craftsmanship, getting acquainted to gestures and tools, to feel and breathe what a workshop is like. Beyond the simple experience of being a plain observer or witness theory-put-in-practice, attendants are invited to craft their own piece of jewelry. <\/span><\/p>\n

Under Benoit\u2019s supervision, participants get to manipulate and use specific saws, pliers or files and, when the day is over \u2013 each participant is rewarded with their own creation: ring or bracelet, which one will you make? <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
