{"title":"Adrien Moniquet","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn into a family where my father's absence left a void, I was raised mainly by my mother, a devoted young country doctor, and my grandparents. It was in the Alpilles, a region steeped in a unique atmosphere, where my grandparents settled after falling in love with Provence, that I grew up. My grandfather's workshop became my refuge, a place where art and craftsmanship came to life. Watching him work every day inspired me and showed me that it was possible to succeed through talent and hard work. A FAMILY EXPERTISE SINCE 1950.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt all started with my grandfather Jacques, a jeweler in Les Baux-de-Provence. I grew up by his side, and I have wonderful memories of the hours I spent as a child in his workshop. Watching him work with such passion, the sounds of the forge, the anvil, and the hammer, the mysterious tools, the happy customers… That's undoubtedly where my desire to follow in his footsteps was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis time, I did more than just observe and admire him… I was fortunate enough to learn my craft from him. This incomparable master craftsman passed on his expertise, his techniques, respect for the work and the material, and freedom in creation. Because he was self-taught and drew inspiration from every encounter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to him, I learned rigor, patience, and perseverance. The store opened in 2012. The turning point came when my grandfather offered me an apprenticeship in his workshop. Those six years of apprenticeship were fundamental. They forged in me the skills and resilience essential to any craftsman. It was a demanding apprenticeship, but certainly the best school. He didn't impose anything on me but guided my actions and choices. And six years later, in 2012, I opened my own workshop and my shop in Provence, in the heart of the village of Maussane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMY ADVENTURE SINCE 2012: The opening of my boutique marked the beginning of a new adventure, sparked by my meeting with Claire. Her presence was transformative, allowing me to fully dedicate myself to what I love most: creating. Together, we built not just a business, but a space where the art of jewelry making can flourish. My journey, filled with diverse experiences and meaningful encounters, reflects my conviction that jewelry is much more than a profession: it is a passion, a quest for beauty and authenticity, which I am proud to share with those who appreciate my work.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"artisan-hand-signed-sterling-adrien-moniquet-france-modernist-swirl-bracelet","title":"Artisan Hand-Signed Sterling Adrien Moniquet France Modernist Swirl Bracelet","description":"\u003ch1 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eArtisan Hand-Signed Sterling Adrien Moniquet France Modernist Swirl Bracelet\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasurements: 2 3\/8\" x 2 3\/8\" (5.84cm x 5.84cm) Face: 1 1\/8\"Round (2.79cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside Circumference: 6.75\" R (17.15cm) Outside Circumference: 7.5\"R (19.05cm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarkings:  Hand-Signed Moniquet Sterling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight: 34.5g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Gorgeous hand made sculptural bangle\/bracelet by renowned French designer Adrien Moniquet.
