HEART COMPANION
From the desire to move forward on one’s own path, to overcome daily doubts and hesitations, to the thoughts we hold for those dear to us.
It is within these subtle shades of the heart that these jewels were created—
as precious, meaningful objects for both body and spirit.
BIRTH
In the hope of offering support to the heart
of the one who wears it──
By infusing each medal
with the meaning carried by various symbols...
I carefully sketch each design by hand,
to give shape to these thoughts.
BY HAND
AND HEART
Modeling, casting, filing, polishing, hammering, fine cutting, stone setting, engraving, gilding…
Each step is done by hand, with care and sincerity.
SIGNIFICATION
Inspired by nature, symbolic animals, and ancient forms,
each piece of jewelry is carefully engraved and carries its own meaning.

MATERIAL
Recycled silver and gold, chosen with environmental responsibility.
Sterling Silver (925 Silver):
An alloy composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% copper.
It is harder and more resistant to scratches than pure silver, making it ideal for durable jewelry.
Vermeil:
Vermeil refers to sterling silver (925 silver) coated with a thick layer of gold.
Unlike standard gold plating, vermeil must meet the following criteria to ensure high durability and a refined, rich shine close to pure gold:
– The base must be sterling silver (925)
– The gold must be at least 10 karats (CULOYON uses 22k)
– The gold layer must be at least 2.5 microns thick (CULOYON applies 3 microns)
18k Yellow Gold (K18YG):
A high-quality alloy consisting of 75% pure gold and 25% silver and copper.
Stronger and more scratch-resistant than pure gold, 18k gold offers a beautiful luster, excellent durability, and lasting value—making it a popular choice for fine, timeless jewelry.
