The Maison
Mathis Paris was born from two women and one conviction: that a piece of jewelry, chosen well, can change how you carry yourself.
The house was founded between Paris and New York by Laurence de Gramont and her daughter Claire, two women who between them have spent a lifetime in two worlds that demand the same thing: excellence, with no shortcuts. Both draw their inspiration from the women around them.
Laurence is the creative visionary. After decades working alongside some of France’s most renowned jewelry ateliers, from Paris to Antwerp, and years in Japan where she absorbed a standard of craftsmanship that leaves no detail unconsidered, she developed something that cannot be taught: an eye. For proportion, for finish, for the invisible logic that separates a beautiful piece from one that becomes irreplaceable.
Claire grew up in this world, traveling alongside her mother through ateliers and stone markets, absorbing an education most designers never get. She went on to spend years working closely with elite athletes, women who know that what makes them formidable comes from within, and that the right jewelry doesn’t create that feeling, it honors it. That experience gave her a clarity of purpose: jewelry doesn’t seal a look. It seals a feeling. It brought her home.
Mathis is a house without borders, built by two women who have crossed continents, immersed themselves in cultures, and found that beauty, like excellence, knows no single origin.
The woman it is made for knows who she is. She moves through the world with conviction, dresses for herself, and holds herself to a standard in everything she loves. What she looks for in jewelry is rare: a piece that feels like it was made for her. Not to be noticed. To be her seal of confidence.
Named for Laurence’s mother’s maiden name, Mathis carries a lineage in which jewelry has always been both memory and expression. A piece you choose today. One that someone finds, years from now, and asks about.
