Costume jewelry is a fascinating world of colors, shapes, and materials. Designers compete with ideas in their collections, creating original jewelry that expresses your personality. As a Parisian brand of high-end costume jewelry, Satellite Paris highlights the nobility of high costume jewelry.
Exuberant, colorful, and accessible, high costume jewelry is free from the constraints of fine jewelry. However, high costume jewelry also embodies a respect for traditional craftsmanship; it is adorned with noble materials enhanced by artisanal gestures as virtuosic as those found on Place Vendôme. Step into the workshops of Parisian costume jewelry designers and discover the secrets of their magnetism.
Extravagance and quality of high costume jewelry
More affordable than fine jewelry, the components of costume jewelry unleash the creativity of costume jewelry brands. All audacities are permitted!
The offering of high costume jewelry is varied for trendy women's jewelry and in tune with the times. Each high costume jewelry brand presents seasonal collections. For all the creations highlighted in its French boutiques, Satellite Paris aims to reconcile the originality of jewelry with high quality.
Original and hybrid jewelry
In high costume jewelry, designers dare to create new combinations of colors and materials. Several collections are unveiled throughout the year, in tune with the seasons. All adornments, rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets are available in countless styles.
In the Parisian workshop of Maison Satellite Paris, from a profusion of materials, the studio of original costume jewelry imagines its colorful adornments:
- The baroque spirit brings together Prestige crystals, rhinestones, and colored cabochons for exuberant adornments like those in the Chiara or Amelita collections;
- Nomadic at heart, Satellite Paris uses colored stones, feathers, and pearls from Japan for trendy jewelry, as if they have emerged from beyond the seas.
When luxury imitates high-end costume jewelry
The allure of high costume jewelry and its original pieces is such that fine jewelry draws inspiration from it! Thus, Bulgari multiplies color combinations in its necklaces and earrings, blending precious and semi-precious stones. Gabriel Chanel enjoyed wearing quality costume jewelry using glass paste, resin, glass beads, and river pearls rather than precious stones.
More extravagant, more intense, yet always elegant, the creations of high-end costume jewelry brands have even graced the runways of haute couture. Who better than them to highlight their touch of whimsy with opulence?
Rigor and craftsmanship: uncompromising jewelry
Variety and preciousness of materials
The variety of patterns and materials used by a costume jewelry designer is astonishing! Our high-end jewelry studio is constantly seeking quality components for modern, accessible, and durable jewelry.
Every detail selected by our Parisian creation workshop is chosen for its authentic beauty and quality. The metals can be gold-plated or silver-plated. Prestige crystals replace diamonds, while semi-precious or natural stones – amethyst, turquoise, amazonite, or malachite – add color and protective virtues to our jewelry with a "bohemian-chic Parisian" style.
These original creations at a fair price allow you to wear your adornments daily and without risk, changing them regularly to create a collection that reflects you. They are also reliable choices as gift ideas for someone dear to you.
Artisanal gestures and craftsmanship
Since the 1980s, Maison Satellite Paris has been the creator of trendy jewelry accompanying the rise of high costume jewelry, even blending its creations with haute couture craftsmanship for a "Parisian" style.
As beautiful on the front as on the back, Satellite Paris jewelry employs traditional manufacturing techniques such as feather marquetry, plique-à-jour enamel, filigree weaving, or granulation of gold-plated metal. These techniques confer elegance to high costume jewelry while preserving artisanal gestures.
Research for inspiration, sketches: everything begins in the heart of the City of Light in our creation studio. The prototypes of our jewelry for women with a Parisian look are created there. A quality and feasibility study will determine the fate of the collection.
High quality and technical expertise in costume jewelry
Then begins the ballet of our artisans: with passion and dedication, they handcraft and assemble the necessary pieces: up to 1,600 for our Claudia necklace! Three months will have passed for their vision to take shape.
Thanks to technical innovation, high-end costume jewelry brands also manage to offer lighter and more durable creations than those of fine jewelry.
Offering greater creative freedom than fine jewelry, costume jewelry allows for limitless originality at a better price-quality ratio without ever sacrificing quality. These French designer jewelry, from the simplest to the most eccentric, add color to an outfit and allow you to stand out. In France and around the world, as a French brand of high-end costume jewelry, Satellite Paris has been contributing to the radiance of this emblematic art of Parisian fashion since 1984.
