History

“ Gemmyo was born from a love story.
When Charif asked me to marry him, we decided to choose my engagement ring together.
Unfortunately, we felt this moment was a disappointment:
the jewelers we visited offered a cold, intimidating
or even obsolete experience. We didn't recognise ourselves
neither in the brands’ voices nor in the products’ prices.
We dreamed of a jeweler rigorous about know-how and quality
but warm in its approach.
Jewelry that would keep up with the times without being ostentatious. An honest and cheerful discourse.
Simply put, a Maison that would be proud of its creations, yet modern and
well meaning in its argumentation.
Such a Maison did not yet exist.
We undertook its creation. ”
