Our prices will be revised effective February 4

Dear Clients, Over the past few months, the price of gold has reached an historic level.Currently, it is €135,000 per kilogram, an unprecedented figure – and the current geopolitical climate gives little indication that prices may ease in the near future. For a Maison like Gemmyo, which creates all its jewelry in France with exacting standards and an uncompromising commitment to the quality of its raw materials, this situation has a direct and immediate impact. It is for this reason that we have decided to adjust our prices as of February 4, 2026, at 8:00 a.m., with an average increase of approximately 7%. This evolution can also be viewed from another perspective: beyond its emotional significance, fine jewelry today increasingly proves to be an object that retains and builds value over time. That said, I […]

The blue-grey sapphire becomes a permanent gemstone

Responsable éditoriale — Tue, 04 Nov 2025 17:00:00 +0000

There are stones that had eluded us for a long time before being tamed. After four years of work, the blue-grey sapphire now joins the range of our permanent gemstones. In 2021, a lapidary we know well laid out several batches of sapphires in front of Charif and me. Nothing extraordinary at first glance, until our eyes were drawn to an intriguing lot. They are sapphires… but which ones? Too grey to be blue. Too blue to be Teal. An indefinable color. Foreign to the standards of classic jewelry. A stone that no House has ever really listed. Yet something happened at that moment. This deep, almost stormy blue, with misty-grey highlights… It’s the depth of the ocean we were seeing. The dealer admitted that he couldn’t find any takers for these few dozen stones. […]

The mysteries of a legendary gemstone

Responsable éditoriale — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 09:07:47 +0000

Recently reintroduced at Gemmyo in limited quantities, the sudden success of the Teal sapphire, a mesmerizing blue-green treasure, prompted me to launch an investigation to uncover the mysteries behind this gemstone. The sapphire is often mistaken for being only royal blue, but upon closer inspection, it reveals a range of hues from pink to yellow, green to clear. April’s birthstone, its name derives from the Hebrew sappîr, meaning “the most beautiful thing.” Not only is this gemstone the second hardest mineral after the diamond on the Mohs scale, but it’s also used in camera lenses and watch crystals. Its scratch resistance and longevity give it an air of timelessness. My investigation begins with a journey to ancient Persia, where the sapphire was believed to represent the celestial dome floating above the Earth. Persians thought that the […]

Men’s Jewelry: A Rich History

Responsable éditoriale — Mon, 31 Mar 2025 09:07:46 +0000

I recently asked one of my valuable journalistic sources, who is very knowledgeable about jewelry, to investigate the history of men’s jewelry. Long overlooked in favor of women’s adornments, this rich history deserved a closer look. For Gemmyo, my source meticulously explored the saga of male ornaments. Here’s a glimpse of their investigation, like a journey through time… Men and jewelry—it’s quite a story! Indeed, in France as well as in Europe, men’s adornments reveal much more than one might think. Rings, necklaces, breastplates, or bracelets—from aristocratic splendor to industrial bourgeoisie, social and cultural transformations are also told through the gold and jewels worn—or shunned—by men. For nearly 100,000 years, jewelry has outlined not only fashion but also major sociocultural movements. While the earliest traces of adornment date back to the Paleolithic era, it was […]
