Face à Face: new 'Luxe Absolu' Bijoux collection

Proposed for the first time in 2005 as a new expression of the French company's creative richness, the jewelry line completes and adds to the collection of vision and sunglasses and has already become a must among next season's accessories.

The new Face à Face eyewear and bijoux collections launched at Silmo 2006 are again strongly characterized by the creative imprint of a company that for over a decade has been creating accessories with a high design content, absolute attention to detail, and totally made-in-France.

The bijoux collection follows seasons and inspirations and currently consists of necklaces, earrings and bracelets.

The use of precious materials such as tortoiseshell, mink, pearls and leather enabled Face à Face to continue creating exceptional and unique accessories and offer a collection devoted to luxury.

The ID Tortoiseshell necklace (handmade by the Maison Bonnet, one of the last master engravers in France) combines solid silver with real tortoiseshell.
A noble natural material that is alive and rich with reflections that range from brown to blonde, the tortoiseshell and silver combo creates an extraordinary contrast which strengthens richness and warmth to create design objects as the symbol of luxury and personality.

With this necklace, Face à Face offers sober and elegant drop earrings.

A very special piece of the 'Luxe Absolu' collection is Hook Mink, a high-fashion necklace in 'scan black' mink, that expresses elegance, softness and comfort.
The solid silver Hook (a Face à Face exclusive) adds a touch of contemporary design to an item that has the dual function of jewelry and glasses case.

Another 'Luxe' version of the Hook necklace is Hook Fine Pearls, where Face à Face presents pearls with a modern and distinctive style.

The classical string of fine, smooth pearls is now replaced with a necklace of irregular baroque mother-of-pearl emphasized by the contrast of the modern clasp in solid silver.

A major new addition to the 2007 jewelry collection by Face à Face are the bracelets in lizard skin.

The original construction of the bracelet, which includes a part that slides into a minimal-design buckle, has allowed Face à Face to develop its favorite concept - the combination of materials and colors - and to play with modularity. The solid silver buckle is combined with a choice of 9 bracelets in lizard skin or leather in various colors: orange, candy pink, jonquil yellow, chocolate, black or beige.

Thanks to the skilful play of contrasts and the perfection of the details, Face à Face has again been able to find a balance between modernity and sobriety and is confirmed as an important benchmark for French creators.
