French Craftsmanship

In the heart of Rue Saint-Honoré, just steps from Place Vendôme, lies a discreet treasure: our workshop.
One floor above the boutique, it’s a world of its own — intimate, luminous, guided by skilled hands and expert eyes.

This is where everything comes to life.
Each Françoise Montague jewel is handcrafted, shaped by a savoir-faire passed down through generations.
Our artisans work with patience and precision. Nothing is left to chance — every detail is a matter of balance, rhythm, and heart.

But the workshop doesn’t just create — it also protects.
Here, we repair your jewelry so it can stand the test of time. And sometimes, when a client entrusts us with an old piece — even from another house — we bring it back to life, with the same care and respect.

Every jewel here tells a story.
And sometimes, it begins a new one.

Responsible Sourcing

At Françoise Montague, every jewel begins with a choice.
The choice of materials — carefully selected for their quality, durability, and unique beauty.

We source our components in France and across Europe, from trusted partners chosen for their precision and craftsmanship.
Glass stones, iridescent pearls, metal settings — each element is traced, measured, observed, before passing into the hands of our artisans.

As artisans ourselves, we are committed to working with fellow French craftspeople.
It’s a conscious decision — even if it comes at a cost. Because behind every component, there is a trade, a hand, a story.
And it is these human, lasting connections that give meaning to what we create.

This attention to detail is our way of honoring what lasts.
Because a well-made jewel is one you keep, wear, and pass on.
And because true elegance — like true responsibility — begins in the invisible gestures.

Mindful Manufacturing

In our Parisian workshop, every jewel takes the time it needs.
One, sometimes two full days to craft a single piece — entirely by hand.

We choose to work in small quantities.
Because what we create isn’t meant to be mass-produced, but meant to last — to be worn, cherished, passed on, and repaired if needed.
Some materials come from older designs that we reinvent, giving them a new life.

Each piece is tested, tried on, and carefully inspected.
Nothing is left to chance — because a well-made jewel is one that lasts.

Made to Last

At Françoise Montague, a jewel is never something to consume.
It is kept, repaired, passed on.
Designed to last, it moves through time without ever losing its shine.
It’s a chosen piece — worn with pride, sometimes gifted, often entrusted.
A fragment of style, a gesture of soul.
A link between yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
