Catherine’s Story Catherine is a native of Paris, France, the city which inspires her jewelry collection to this day. She currently resides in Santa Monica, California where her studio, La Vie Parisienne (circa 1979) brings together all the elements to hand make each piece for her unique collection. A visionary, Catherine’s artistic and creative sensibilities have taken her into numerous creative fields beyond jewelry. An avid painter, she has exhibited in Paris and Los Angeles. The same magic and imagination evident in her jewelry is echoed in her paintings, which feature vibrant colors, mythical creatures and draw heavy inspiration from the musings and philosophies of her inner world. Catherine is a true citizen of the world. |
The La Vie Pariseinne collection originates from old Parisian workshops established over 200 years ago. Not a reproduction but a continuation of history, Catherine and her design team combine these actual, historical parts creating a timeless collection rooted in history.
