Chaumet Jewelry

Chaumet jewelry, an empire within an empire

Marie-Étienne Nitot learned his trade from Marie-Antoinette's jeweler, and founded his own house in 1780. Noticed under the empire, he created the sword used for Napoleon's coronation. Having become official jeweler of the Imperial Court, he served the Emperor's ambition to make Paris the center of fashion, and adorned Empress Joséphine, his muse, with his most beautiful pieces. In 1812, the jewelry was established under the protective column of Place Vendôme, at number 12. The empire collapsed but the jewelry retained its imperial air. At the end of the 19th century, Joseph Chaumet gave it his name to crown its glory.
