The Croix de Genève Atelier
An open, vibrant space where each piece is crafted with care and every detail matters.
n our city, where 2,000 years of history have shaped our identity,
where jewelry is woven into our culture,
where craftsmanship is passed down with passion,
we’re proud to play our part.
Our creations come to life in the soul of Geneva.
Designed, shaped, and assembled with the utmost care,
the Croix de Genève is more than a piece of jewelry, it is a statement,
a symbol, an heirloom, a talisman.
We invite you into our atelier, where you’ll discover the key steps, from concept to delivery.
A place where magic takes shape.
An atelier where a thousand stories begin.
The Croix de Genève Atelier is a vibrant creative space where dreams become projects.
Design:
Sometimes by hand, but most often in 3D and rendered visuals.
Casting:
After a 3D wax print, the casting tree is assembled.
Through lost-wax casting, the material takes shape.
Each component is then separated from the tree and individually refined.
Filing:
The file is the jeweler’s primary tool, used to remove every imperfection from the casting and shape the piece with precision.
Stone Setting:
A major art in jewelry-making, this is the moment when the stone finds its place in the metal — a task of utmost precision.
It is done by hand, under a binocular microscope, guiding each gesture and ensuring perfect quality.
Hours of focused work, dedicated to just a few square millimeters.
Polishing:
A demanding task — messy, noisy, and intense — yet it’s here that the jewel comes to life and the true brilliance of the material is revealed.
Braiding:
Dexterity and consistency — mastering soft materials is just as essential.
Each bracelet is hand-braided to fit your wrist perfectly, available in over 20 shades of waxed marine cord.
Come discover the atelier, take the time to explore our creations or imagine your own, made to measure.
