Francéclat: The French Touch at Vicenzaoro
Seventeen brands, diverse in style, yet united by a creative spirit unafraid of experimentation and rooted in tradition. At Vicenzaoro, the French vision of jewelry is more alive than ever
Artisan savoir-faire, cultured detail, refined aesthetics: the codes of the most renowned Place Vendôme jewelry companies are preserved today through the work of new and creative French workshops. Sustaining and promoting their values around the world is Francéclat, an association that supports the advancement of French brands with the aim of expanding and developing their country’s most symbolic sectors across borders. And Francéclat is bringing this new wave to the September 2025 edition of Vicenzaoro, with a collective of brands that embody the genius, elegance, and vision of contemporary French jewelry. Among them, Akillis presents a renewed interpretation of its Python collection, paying tribute to the snake as an ancient symbol of rebirth. Crafted like a second skin, the gold forms articulated scales that wrap the body with tactile elegance. Engraving gives way to sculpture in a high jewelry gesture that fuses strength and sensuality.

Continuing on to tropical latitudes, Ana&Cha offers a line invigorated by a vivid range of colors, radiant textures, and shapes inspired by lush nature. The jewelry is composed of fragments of an eternal summer due to an aesthetic that invites letting oneself go, to choose the dream, the freedom. Connection to natural elements is also paramount in the work of Collection Constance through the Galatée, Théodora and Théia proposals that display poetic surfaces and organic geometries: every piece evokes a delicately intense primal force. Copin, which draws inspiration from the Dune universe to reinterpret the chevalier ring, has a more graphic and structured vision. The design is bold, the materials - aquamarine, heliodor, diamond - compose a stylistic map that merges epic narrative with French rigor. D1928 looks to a real place, the French Riviera, transforming it into emotional topography. The Baie des Anges collection evokes the Mediterranean with symbolic circles and marine hues, while 1928 and La Pinède pay homage to Art Deco and the Riviera’s nature.

More conceptual, La Brune & La Blonde starts from its iconic naked diamond aesthetic to build the Moon and Sun collection: a visual interpretation of the duality of light and shadow, entrusted to polished and satin-finished gold and diamonds. Brightness also features in the proposal by Min&ral, which is presenting Calypso, a line made of soft curves and sharp profiles and a play on contrasts that finds harmony in the iridescent reflections of an array of colored gems. Morganne Bello’s work is more intimate as it continues its exploration of cabochon stones with the Songe collection, enriched by golden rutilated quartz. The golden inclusions look like little secrets; the material becomes a place of contemplation and wishful reflection.
Color becomes an expressive code with Isabelle Langlois, which draws on impressionist inspiration to create floral compositions made of bright gems: authentic “precious bouquets” that reveal a joy for creating, a taste for tradition and the ability to reinvent it. Minimalism and matter, on the other hand, are the essentials of Signe Particulier’s proposal with the Duo Précieux collection, in which sterling silver and vermeil create a fundamental and powerful formal synthesis. The pure and sculptural volumes are designed to reveal the wearer’s personality. The brand Statement presents Rivet, a collection inspired by the power of anchoring rings found on the reverse of paintings, hidden yet essential. Translated into jewelry, the forms are symbols of emotional grounding, celebrating the invisible bonds that support, connect, and quietly shape our lives. The collective is further enriched by the unconventional charm of Cédille Paris, the masculine flair of Ikoba, the quality of the services offered by Bijoux CN and Marcel Robbez Masson, the essential style of My First Diamond, and the multifaceted inspirations of Zag. A constellation of creative voices, each interpreting form, emotion, and function through a distinct and personal lens.
