MILANÉ
The Inspiration
A movement, not a bird.
The swallow is the mark of the house. It returns to the same place every year — and it does not fly straight, but in arcs it changes mid-beat.
MILANÉ takes exactly that moment: the wing half open, just before it turns. From it comes the line that runs through every piece — a long curve that forks at its end.
Navy and gold, because together they are the colour of an evening with light still in the sky: marquise sapphires in deep blue, diamonds as the bright points, yellow gold as the line between them.
The bird itself is never depicted. What remains is its movement.

Retour du Soir
More on this pieceThe swallow sits at the hollow of the neck, where the eye goes anyway. Every link is the same wing in miniature — one shape, repeated, until it has become a chain.

Swallow Bracelet
More on this pieceHere the shape travels once around the wrist: the same wings, set one after another, until they close the circle. At the front the bird is whole; at the back only its line remains.
