"Timeless, sustainable, luxury jewelry totally lends itself to the notion of transmission and second hand. One more step for the planet, but also for the jewel to which we give back its rightful place: worn, on the front of the stage!"

━ Charlotte Rey, founder of Castafiore

"You have to get out of the brand's straightjacket because these unique pieces, very well made by anonymous (usually French) artisans, allow you to stand out. And they are much cheaper!"

━ Anne Borde, co-founder of Castafiore

"There have been many creative jewelers, there are not only the big houses! But 80% of jewelry are not signed, so they have no price. We had to solve the concern of authentication by professionals and setting a price."

━ Anne Borde, co-founder of Castafiore

We go for: The luxurious selection and the jewelry 1960 signed that they love to find in private homes or antique shops.

Chanel rings, Chopard necklaces, Van Cleef & Arpels earrings, Cartier bracelets, but also precious and unsigned nuggets forgotten for too long in boxes at jewelry... On this platform, dedicated to vintage and second-hand jewelry, the doors to a wonderful world full of stories open up.

"Some customers are looking for a specific piece of jewelry, a rare stone color but one they know they can find at castafiore.fr, others choose a piece of jewelry they love and give a new life to."

━ Charlotte Rey, founder of Castafiore

"We are looking for pieces that have personality, while having a palpable perceived value thanks to the know-how that presides over them, especially in gold work. Another very important point: we are looking for pieces that are intended to be worn. We really want jewelry to take back a place in our wardrobes."

━ Charlotte Rey & Anne Borde, founders of Castafiore

These two experts in the field [...] advocate a simple motto: the time has come to bring back to light the beautiful pieces that have too often fallen asleep, so that each and everyone dares to wear them again on a daily basis. And if possible, without worrying about the so-called diktats, to instead mix and match them boldly.

" Castafiore revives and rediscovers existing resources. By putting old or second-hand jewelry back on the market, we contribute to limiting our consumption of raw materials, while promoting the circular economy."
