230 Years of fine french craftsmanship. Chaumet carries its legacy into the 20th century catering to the same aristocratic clientele it was originally founded on.  Marie-Etienne Nitot, the creator of Chaumet was first appointed the jeweler of Napolean, using fine french diamonds, precious stones and platinum, Nitot continued creating crown jewels for the royal kings and queens of Europe.  The brand eventually forged into the 1900's giving way to the art deco and feminist style of its era. Prestigious art pieces marked by their symbolism of power, The House of Chaumet is still reputed as one of the finest antique high jewellers in the world.
