AN EXPERT WHO ADORES THE SIGNATURE STYLES OF PLACE VENDÔME

Meeting with Carine Miller

It was thanks to a long and exciting collaboration with Carine Miller that I was able to appreciate her rigor, professionalism, and expertise.

What is your favorite stone?

The Diamond.

Which jewel best represents you?

The earrings really represent me.

A jeweler you like?

It's Cartier! Cartier ancien.

What do you like about your job?

The purchase, the treasure hunt… China.

What made you decide to choose it?

It’s my love of the past and archaeology. Searching in the earth, another discovery…

A book you haven’t forgotten?

“Dona Gracia Nasi” by Cécil Roth. She is a woman who saved people… many people between the end of the 15th century and the beginning of the 16th century. It is a true story and a very courageous woman. I often read this book, at least once a year.

Which exhibition has left a mark on you?

There are 2 of them! One on the diamond: “Diamonds at the Heart of the Earth, at the Heart of the Stars, at the Heart of Power” in 2001 and the second on the Pearl in 2007. It was at the Museum of Natural History; there were many things, two very complete exhibitions; everything was gathered in one place. It was really interesting.

But I also cannot forget the exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs: “Bijoux Art Déco et Avant-Garde, Jean Després et les Bijoutiers modernes”, in 2009.

Your favorite work of art?

Ossip Zadkine

I love sculpture, and even more so the sculptures from the 1930s.

A place that inspires you?

The Place des Vosges! I love Paris and the old part of it!

A music you listen to?

Barry White. I like Jazz, I often listen to TSF Jazz in the car.

What would you like to achieve?

The happiness of my loved ones comes first!

 My deepest gratitude for the moments I have spent with you.
