BESPOKE JEWELRY
Louise Vurpas, the bespoke expert in Lyon
Louise loves family stories, especially those about family heirloom jewelry. She understands the emotional connection that forms between an object and its owner, as well as the trust placed in her hands. This is why she dedicates special attention to her work.
She enjoys "bringing new life" to an old piece of jewelry, valuing both the idea of passing it down through generations and the eco-conscious approach of recycling. She loves transforming materials, playing with shapes, and most importantly, collaborating with you to create a piece of jewelry that perfectly suits you, whether it’s a transformation or a personalized creation.
Her expertise in contemporary jewelry adds a modern touch to her creative process. A jeweler’s work truly comes to life in the shared emotion of the client as they discover or rediscover the brilliance of a piece with immeasurable sentimental value.

Médailles de baptême
La médaille de baptême, symbole d’émotions profondes, est
l’un des premiers bijoux reçu dans une vie. Chez Louise Vurpas,
ces médailles en or 18 carats sont bien plus que de simples bijoux : elles sont
des œuvres d’art intemporelles, conçues pour célébrer des instants précieux
tels qu’un baptême, une naissance ou un anniversaire.
Les créations de Louise mettent en lumière des figures classiques comme la
Vierge, les Anges ou le Christ, mais aussi des motifs contemporains tels que
l’Arbre de Vie ou la croix, alliant ainsi tradition et modernité. Fabriquées
avec soin dans son atelier lyonnais, chaque médaille porte la marque d’un
savoir-faire artisanal et local, témoignant d’une attention aux détails et d’un
raffinement unique.
Offerte traditionnellement par la marraine lors d’un baptême religieux ou
laïc, la médaille de baptême symbolise un nouveau départ, une aventure unique :
celle de la vie. Souvent accompagnée d’une chaîne en or offerte par le parrain,
elle devient un bijou personnel lorsqu’elle est gravée d’un prénom, d’une date (celle
de la naissance ou du baptême) ou d’un message significatif. Transmise de
génération en génération, elle est le témoin d’une histoire familiale
précieuse.
Avec sa vision novatrice et son expertise, Louise Vurpas
vous accompagne dans le choix et la personnalisation de ce bijou unique. Dans
son atelier, situé au cœur du quartier historique des bijoutiers à Lyon, chaque
création est réalisée avec passion et précision, dans le respect des traditions
et des désirs de chaque client.
Pour toute demande ou conseil sur le choix de votre médaille de baptême,

Engagement Rings and Wedding Bands
Maggie & Andrew
Maggie and Andrew discovered Louise's work by chance, during a walk in the Saint-Georges district. Attracted by the jewelry displayed in the windows of the office on rue Saint-Georges, they were immediately immersed in Louise's artistic universe: a subtle blend of contemporary and traditional, bold and accessible, just like our space located in the heart of Vieux Lyon.
Maggie left with two pairs of earrings: the Ruban model in Vermeil and the Torsion model in Silver.
A few weeks later, they contacted us again with a special project: the creation of their engagement ring and wedding bands. Their special connection with France pushed them to work with a French artisan jeweler, a beautiful symbol for this project.
Several weeks of remote collaboration followed, punctuated by videoconference meetings and WhatsApp exchanges between Lyon and San Francisco, despite the 9-hour time difference.
Maggie had been particularly taken by an old custom creation by Louise and wanted to be inspired by it. Her favorite stones were diamonds and sapphires, and offering sapphires from Auvergne quickly became an obvious choice.
