MAXIM'S

The Maxim’s jewelry store.
At the premiere, the famous Maison Maxim’s unveils a new product: its jewelry.

First of all, it should be said that this high-end jewelry collection was created by Siti Zheng for Maxim’s.
In this regard, Maxim’s wishes to highlight a certain way of life by bringing a cultural richness. Thus, the emblematic Maison on Rue Royale extends the art of gastronomy to that of jewelry. In this context, artistic director Siti Zheng presents her collection at Esprit Joaillerie.

It should be noted that Maxim’s jewelry is colorful; the gems blend with the diamonds. Also, here is a selection that highlights this interest in colored stones. It is worth noting that the very first creation dates back to 2012, it is the necklace The Pavots Created for the 120th anniversary of the famous Maxim’s house.

 To put it simply, it’s an original collection to discover at Maxim’s.

About Maxim’s

The Maxim’s legend began in May 1893 when Irma de Montigny, a seductive courtesan, opened the small bistro located at 3 Rue Royale. A few days earlier, Maxime Gaillard, a waiter, had opened the place. This became the elegant meeting place of the Belle Époque. But it was Eugène Cornuché, the maître d’hôtel, who, on the occasion of the 1900 World Exhibition, gave the restaurant its worldwide fame. By calling on the artists of the Nancy school of art, he transformed the establishment into a veritable temple of Art Nouveau, which is now classified as a National Historic Monument of France.
