NOTICE
Founded at the end of the 19th century, René Boivin has established itself as one of the leading figures in Parisian jewelry, alongside houses such as Suzanne Belperron, Mellerio and Boucheron. Renowned for his bold, innovative style, René Boivin's sculptural creations combine gold, precious and hard stones. From the 1930s onwards, Jeanne Boivin and Juliette Moutard imposed a singular aesthetic, somewhere between modernism and naturalism. Today, René Boivin's jewels appeal to collectors of 20th-century French haute joaillerie.
