MARC DELOCHE

A DPLG architect, Marc Deloche naturally began his career in this field, but this energetic dandy with an independent spirit and a love of art and design soon turned his attention to jewellery design.
Marc Deloche draws, uses his imagination, explores shapes and materials, and plays with volumes and unisex.
The materials he uses are always noble, especially solid silver, his favourite metal, which he mixes with leather and semi-precious stones - then, in his workshop in Toulouse, expert hands get busy, take over... hammering, shaping, filing, polishing, hallmarking, signing and numbering the metal... a piece of jewellery is born... Unique.
The collections include 40s-inspired frames with timeless lines and a vintage patina, imposing, sinuous bracelets reminiscent of a jumper's thick knitwear, medals that carry meanings and messages that hang around a neck or a wrist, accumulate and are personalised according to inspiration, wishes and superstitions...
The brand's signature signet ring features a bulldog, an antelope, a ram, a scarab... a curious bestiary of oversized proportions that hangs over the hand like an irresistible weapon.
The permanent collections are complemented by 'capsule' collections and 'scoubidou' sets - a nod to the Andy Warhol exhibition at the Grand Palais - as well as a delicious variation on the 'animal' signet rings, in which the silver is mysteriously covered in a thick white lacquer.

It is in his workshop, a place almost out of time, that the creations are born, the prototypes are perfected, special orders are made, the jewellery is personalised and thus becomes unique.
Marc Deloche attaches great importance to making his jewellery by hand. When necessary, he calls on other workshops to ensure larger production runs. These workshops, all located in France, have now become true partners.
