ASTRID POMMERET
Astrid Pommeret is an art jewelry house founded by the eponymous artist, whose creations exist at the crossroads of haute couture, wearable art, and exceptional craftsmanship.
Trained in the art of illumination, Astrid Pommeret has developed a singular artistic language centered around natural pigments, gold leaf, and woven metal, which she transforms into entirely handcrafted wearable works of art. Inspired by ancestral techniques and precious savoir-faire, she creates sculptural pieces in which chromatic compositions and pictorial material become the essence of the jewel.
By substituting precious stones with natural pigments drawn from the earth and mineral world, Astrid Pommeret proposes a singular vision of luxury, where value lies less in ostentation than in gesture, time, and artistic materiality. The pigments become living pictorial stones, giving each piece an organic and emotional depth.
The mineral nuances of the pigments, their organic vibrations, and the movements created through woven metal give rise to living compositions conceived as fragments of painting to be worn. Each creation reveals unique gradients that can never be reproduced identically, making every piece entirely singular.
Each individual element composing the creations is meticulously filled by hand with powdered pigments through an extremely precise artisanal gesture. The quantities, shades, and gradients naturally vary from one piece to another, making every composition absolutely unique and impossible to reproduce identically. This element of unpredictability gives Astrid Pommeret creations an almost organic dimension, as though the material itself were alive.
The artist also develops hybrid creations at the frontier between jewelry and accessory, such as the Sac Astrid, conceived as a precious object to be worn. Between portable sculpture and fashion piece, this creation illustrates the house’s transversal approach, where jewelry transcends ornament to become a true territory of artistic expression.
Through this approach, Astrid Pommeret develops a contemporary vision of author jewelry, where the precious object becomes an artistic medium in its own right. Between sculpture, painting, and haute parure, her creations explore the boundary between artwork and ornament.
Time plays an essential role in her creative process. Certain pieces may require more than sixty hours of meticulous handwork, guided by gestures inherited from traditional craftsmanship. Every stage of production is carried out by hand in her atelier, in a constant search for balance between material, light, and movement.
Conceived as rare and timeless objects, Astrid Pommeret creations celebrate a free, sensitive, and deeply artistic femininity.
