Brand history
Solenn is a jewelry brand for men and women, born in November 2022. For me, this brand is the union of two worlds I've been passionate about for years: stones and pearls. "Another jewelry brand?" you might think. Yes, it is, but let me tell you what makes Solenn so special and why I chose to embark on this adventure.
It all started with a simple desire: to please myself. I wanted a perfect bracelet, one that wouldn't cling to my sweater, that would keep its brilliant color after a shower or a workout. A bracelet whose extension chain wouldn't spoil the design, and that would fit perfectly on my wrist. A bracelet that's practical, comfortable to sleep with, easy to take off and put back on, and above all, unique, not like the one my colleague or neighbor wears. And of course, this ideal bracelet didn't have to cost a fortune!
With palpable excitement, I headed for a nearby bead shop, my old childhood pearl case in hand, in search of something special. Like a Proust's madeleine, this visit brought back childhood memories. My case quickly filled up with new beads of all shapes and colors, tools and accessories. Before I knew it, the budget I'd set myself had been far exceeded. But carried away by a whirlwind of ideas and an irresistible desire to create this bracelet, I couldn't resist the impulse.
Passions you can't control it.
Itnd so, after much research, trying on, undoing, cracking and remodeling, I created the bracelet I'd imagined and which answered all the problems, called l'Unique. As my creations proved so popular, and after a few initial orders from friends, I decided to try Adventure with a capital A.
Today, what was once a hobby has become a real business. For me, it's an opportunity to unleash my creativity, to play with materials, colors and shapes to create handmade jewelry that's unique, elegant and long-lasting.
Solenn stands out for three essential features:
Singularity.
Each piece is unique, handcrafted in a limited edition in my small workshop in Bruges, the fruit of my creativity.
Durability
Goodbye gold plating, I use high-quality materials such as natural stones, crystals, silver and, above all, Gold filled, an American plating technique that contains 50 to 100 times more gold than conventional plating.
Aesthetics
my jewelry is delicate, refined and made-to-measure. The bracelets and rings, in particular, are distinguished by their elasticity and the absence of clasps, offering an elegant and practical finish.
In adopting this approach, I strive to build a brand that stands out for its uniquely French quality and boldness, while preserving artisanal simplicity and essential accessibility.
I sincerely hope that my world will seduce and inspire you!
