About Emmanuelle
Emmanuelle Zysman, jewelry designer
A design house founded in 2004
Emmanuelle Zysman founded her brand in 2004, after several years spent designing leather bags and accessories. The spark came with a silver bracelet designed for a friend: a lucky charm that became impossible to keep in stock. Jewelry then became the center of gravity of a universe she has built stone by stone, motto by motto, in her Montmartre workshop.
A recognizable aesthetic
Hand-hammered surfaces, Latin mottos engraved in intaglio, semi-precious stones chosen for their hue rather than their uniformity. Pink and green tourmalines, rose-cut aquamarines, red spinels, champagne diamonds. Emmanuelle's iconography draws from various territories: medieval alchemy, esotericism, Greek mythology, cabinets of curiosities, the circus world, and the films of Emir Kusturica. Memory and love are the two themes that nourish all her collections.
Her jewelry resembles talismans—objects worn like convictions, almost like armor. Stackable rings, protective bracelets, motto necklaces, hammered wedding bands: each piece is designed to endure, to accompany your days, and to take on a personal patina.
The craftsmanship
Emmanuelle's workshop is located at 81 rue des Martyrs, in the 18th arrondissement, just a few steps from the Place des Abbesses. This is where she designs, sets, and hammers, accompanied by a small team of artisans. The techniques used are those of traditional French jewelry making: hand hammering, bezel setting, intaglio engraving, and lost-wax casting.
The house works primarily with 18-karat gold (yellow, white, rose), 950 platinum, solid silver, and vermeil. All stones are selected one by one from trusted European lapidaries.
Bespoke work
A large part of Emmanuelle's work is bespoke: transforming inherited jewelry, resetting a family stone, designing a unique engagement ring, or creating a wedding band that does not yet exist. Appointments can be made in the boutique or via video call, and the project is developed over a few weeks, from the sketch to the final delivery.
