A rather special wedding proposal? An opportunity to brand a symbolic date? And much more…This is the promise of Némès Paris. A jewel that we could only dream of, that tells a story, that of its creator. Jewelry is adapting to change and to the era of personalization. The French start-up founded by Julie Pascal, Quentin Leroy and Arnault Daubresque aims to make it possible to design personalized jewelry made in France, while greatly reducing its environmental impact.
An innovative concept : create your own jewelry like an avatar
Inspired by the world of video games, creating a piece of jewelry at Némès is similar to creating a character. Through an intuitive online platform, customers can choose from an infinite number of patterns, shapes, and finishes to create a unique piece. With 172 billion possible combinations, each creation perfectly reflects the personality and tastes of its creator. In just 15 to 20 minutes, the user finalizes their design, which is then transformed into computer code before being handed over to the expert hands of French artisans. Laser cutting in Burgundy, meticulous assembly in the Lot region, and gilding gold plating in Paris testifies to the excellent craftsmanship that characterizes the brand.

Ethics at the heart of the Némès Model
Unlike mass production, which is often outsourced, Némès favors a local and eco-responsible approach. The jewelry is fabricated from raw and recycled materials and is recyclable, using a low energy process. This approach allows to reduce by 76% CO2 emissions compared to traditional jewelry, resulting in a carbon footprint that is four to five times lower than current standards. The absence of inventory, combined with on-demand productions, also limits waste. Némès creations are delivered in elegant boxes made from recycled and compostable cardboard.
An accessible and inclusive jewelry
Némès breaks the mold by making custom jewelry accessible to all budgets. The brand appeals to a broad clientele, without sacrificing quality or craftsmanship. Furthemore, Némès has chosen to never increase its prices since its creation, even during times of economical instability.

The return to the magic of jewelry
While choosing the name “Némès”, which references to the headdress of Ancient Egypt’s pharaohs, the brand infuses each jewelry with a mystical and protective dimension. A Némès jewel… but above all an amulet shaped by the emotions of its charming owner. Meaningful and respectful of the environment, Némès assures a modern and poetic vision of beauty, and of truth.
