Frequently Asked Questions
COURBET
COURBET's mission is to offer new jewellery that is ecological and ethical, modern and creative, and respectful of know-how.
A duo, Marie-Ann Wachtmeister and Manuel Mallen, are spearheading this original and pioneering project on the renowned Place Vendôme, an address at the heart of the history of French jewellery. Together, they have written the raison d'être of COURBET, which lies in the use of two traditional yet multi-faceted jewellery materials: lab- grown diamonds and recycled gold.
COURBET only uses lab-grown diamonds and recycled gold. We insist that we will never offer diamonds from mines, as the mining industry is damaging the planet and the working conditions in the mines do not correspond to the values of sustainability and ethics that we stand for.
COURBET uses 18K recycled gold, white lab-grown diamonds and fancy coloured lab-grown diamonds.
COURBET creations are made by craftsmen who have been working for the Place Vendôme for several generations. Their workshops are located in France, in Paris and Lyon, and in Italy in Valenza.
Our collections can be viewed online on courbet.com and on the social networks @courbetofficial.
