Every piece is unique. As the resin is artfully made to resemble precious minerals, variation in color and structure or inclusions will occur, this is not a flaw but part of the magic.
From the beginning Dominique Denaive has carved out his reputation thanks to his mastery of resin, his favorite material. Like an alchemist he blends it with gold dust and pigments so it becomes a precious mineral after which he shapes it into unique items of jewelry. He started his career as part of a Parisian team of ground- breaking fashion labels known as Le Groupe Des Halles, It did not take long for luxury brands such as Christian Lacroix, Dior, Kenzo, Rochas or Balenciaga to take note.
Up until 1999, each of these called on his talent to design exclusive resin models for their collections. The new millennium arrived, and with it Dominique Denaive's decision to dedicate his talent, alongside his wife Lena, exclusively to his own label.
The soul and spirit of Dominique Denaive's jewelry stems from the limited, entirely hand-crafted production runs. It's this touch that makes all the difference. Drawing inspiration from the arts each piece of jewelry starts life on Dominique Denaive's sketchbook. Next, comes an extensive technical research on the effects he will apply to the resin. Lastly is the production process itself, which is completed by a team of artisans trained and supervised by Denaive himself. In his workshop, the resin for each piece is carefully cast, finished, polished and meticulously assembled by hand. It is this attention to detail that imbues each element of the jewelry with its unique and rare character.
Dominique Denaive's collections are rich, opulent and eclectic. The daring blend of a unique material with a carefully wrought design has enchanted women around the world for more than thirty years.
