Fred Jewelry
La Maison Fred: from darkness to light
How did the light of Latin America reach Paris? How did models as luminous and fresh as Fred jewelry surface, as if emerging from the ocean, to reach the Parisian cobblestones?
Fred Samuel , born in 1908 in Argentina into a family of Alsatian origin, returned to Paris to train as a jeweler. It was he who introduced the cultured pearl into France. A pearl of a particular creamy pink even takes its name. Then it is the colored diamond which marks its originality. In 1936, he founded his House at 14, rue de la Paix and illuminated the design of the Parisian capital, restoring the light of the distant horizons he traveled. The Vichy government forced him to remove the name “Samuel” from his sign; a yellow star is placed on the front of his jewelry store which he soon seizes. It is the dark hour in the history of the House, the time of clandestinity in the resistance. Regaining possession of his property, Fred opens a new chapter, and it is the return of the light.
The Fred signature: an invitation to travel
Stones that absorb light, pearls that reflect the shimmer of water, sparkling golds and composite materials, that's pretty much everything that goes into Fred jewelry . Captivating, the Fred jewel unfolds in a rainbow of shades to bring the sumptuous changing colors of the horizon to you. It captures the beauty of the distance to give it back to you. Fred jewelry is this delicate piece that hugs a woman's curves to reveal her sensuality and moves on her like the rolling waves. But its curved line can give way to a solid creation which, by coming together with determination, underlines the power of man, affirms his will and his character. It is the movement of life that Fred jewelry embraces, or even beauty in its luminous forms.
