Templier Joaillerie Moderniste Française For more than a century, Templier has embodied audacity and modernity in French jewelry. Born in 1891 into a family of Parisian jewelers, Raymond Templier transformed the art of jewelry into a true expression of design. Visionary, he broke with the floral ornamentation of Art Nouveau to invent a avant-garde, geometric and architectural style. His creations, of radical purity, make Templier a major reference in Art Deco and modern jewelry. Co-founder of the Union des Artistes Modernes alongside Le Corbusier, Raymond Templier laid the foundations for functional and refined art, where every line and every volume expresses a new harmony. Today, the Maison continues this vision. Under the leadership of Caroline and Louis, descendants of this creative lineage, Templier reissues the master’s iconic jewels, in absolute respect for his exacting standards and the excellence of French haute jewelry craftsmanship. More than just a legacy, it is a signature. An timeless style where the rigour of forms meets the strength of volume, intended for discerning enthusiasts of design, balance, and elegance.
He moves away from naturalistic motifs to design geometric, almost architectural jewels. This approach, fueled by the zeitgeist and the rise of modern design, will give jewelry a new direction.
One hundred years after lighting up the world, Art Deco is finding its appeal once again at the Museum of Decorative Arts. The exhibition «1925-2025. Cent Years of Art Deco», presented from October 22, 2025 to April 26, 2026, offers a journey through the century that questions the relationship between modernity and beauty, luxury and creation.
