About Chaumet brand
The history of Chaumet is a tale of craftsmanship and luxury that spans more than two centuries.
Established in 1780 by Marie-Étienne Nitot, a Parisian jeweler, Chaumet quickly gained
recognition for its exquisite craftsmanship and innovative designs. Nitot became the official
jeweler to Empress Josephine, the wife of Napoleon Bonaparte, solidifying the brand's
association with royalty.
Throughout the 20th century, Chaumet continued to evolve, adapting its designs to the changing
tastes of each era. Over the years, the brand has collaborated with numerous artists and
designers. The House of Chaumet is particularly renowned for its tiaras, which have adorned the
heads of brides and royalty throughout history.
Today, Chaumet remains a symbol of timeless elegance and refined luxury. The brand's flagship
boutique on Place Vendôme in Paris continues to be a beacon of sophistication, and Chaumet
keeps being one of the most prestigious jewelry houses in the world.
