❗️❗️❗️

"A horn filled with gold coins."

Many assume

this resembles feminine lace,

but in totemic symbolism,

it represents male power

—

the horn.

"A horn filled with gold."

The art of carving a horn

brimming with gold coins

—

found in Nepal,

where old hands still know the craft.

Through Teases’ collections,

through quiet trades across Asia,

we’ve brought back this rare,

openwork gold

—

made not to sell, but to wear.

Antique gold long chain—also from Teases.

*

Real gold jewelry

—

buy one, keep it for life.

A piece you will wear, again and again,

 in real life, every day.

It’s gold jewelry with presence.

Worn through every season, every day.

Bold · Powerful · Timeless.

It holds the rhythm of

feminine strength,

a presence often seen at formal occasions.

Yet,

I love it more for this

—

Unintentional.

Effortless elegance.

A flash of gold,

bright and bold.

Pure gold, drawing fortune.

—

I always return to curating for myself.

I love it thick.

(Absolutely nothing like
the flimsy pieces you see everywhere.)

*

“Thickness is a kind of fortune.”

And yet

—

I asked for it to be made small.

(Which takes even more skill.)

To hold within it

a hidden meaning.

Quiet.

Small.

Steady, noble grace

—

that is a woman’s true fortune.

Grace. Fortune.

How could a life like that

not be beautiful,

not be joyful?

girlhood days.” 💃

Exquisite. Intricate.

A meticulous recreation of

a small jewel once owned by

Empress Joséphine

—

exhibited at Place Vendôme, Paris,

from her girlhood days.

The smaller the jewel,

the harder to craft.

Yet

I insisted on creating this limited batch.

Limited Offer.

Each delicate butterfly petal

hand-set with 6–8 tiny diamonds.

All Diamonds

—

Authentic South African diamonds.

Little piece fine jewel.

So! Very! Sparkling!

Every angle of this jewel

—

like a Cindy Chao butterfly.

Before Joséphine’s legend, 

before her Chaumet tiaras

—

when she was not yet empress,

still just a girl—

few knew the quiet truth within:

“That gentle girl at heart

—she never left.”

Rarely does antique jewelry feel

so right for a modern, minimalist look

—

yet still carry a sense of unique elegance.

Small, but never flat.

3D dimensional!

 "Every side has detail."

In every season

—

from spring and summer to the dark,

muted depths of autumn and winter

a captivating sparkle emerges.

They’re just the same

gently reminding me,

“In spring and summer,

wear peach blossoms.”

Dotted in delicate color.

Gold.

Solid 18K through and through.

Like watercolor brushed by hand,

but done on enamel and gold.

The smaller it is,

It’s just—

there’s something about a slender bracelet

that feels more everyday,

more gently feminine.

“That effortless kind of elegance.”

VLOGs from New York auctions

to life in California.

“Every time you see me in pearls

—

it’s always, only, this pair.”

Truth is—

as collectors of fine objects,

we’ve handled pearls

with no price ceiling.

I never loved pearls that felt too grand.

The true essence of a pearl is this:

“So noble,

 it softens the heart.”

when I got married

on Long Island, New York—

it was this very pair.

As you see—

I’ve always chosen

this size,

this shape,

this perfect round pearl

for the quietest,

most personal moments.

And only this.

These pearls measure

7.5mm–8mm

—

perfect for Eastern features.

Japanese saltwater pearls,

each one certified.

Earring posts —

That soft, glowing skin-luster

—

(All are natural saltwater pearls.
Each pair, each pearl, will differ slightly)

Just like the year my mother took me to Kyoto

to choose my very first pearls

—

She taught me this:

“Jewelry near the face

should lift your complexion.”

“Never let it steal

the natural light from your skin.”

“A fine, true round pearl

will bring a flush to the face—

 like elegance, born from within.”

*

Better to look right here,

in the photos on my phone.

Just life. Just daily light.

I’ve long been strong enough to fly.
(mais je suis déjà assez forte pour voler)

At any moment,
(À tout moment)
