A Little History About Gripoix \u2013 Fabulous French Craftsmanship<\/p>\n
Gripoix is one of the oldest Parisian houses specializing in the manufacture of imitation and couture jewelry. Toward the end of the 19th century, Augustine Gripoix acquired the Gasse designer label, which produced glass pearls imitating real pearls. By 1900, the greatest couture houses of the time, including Worth and Paul Poiret, were ordering Gripoix\u2019s imitation jewelry.<\/p>\n
From the 1920s onward, the Gripoix atelier was almost exclusively dedicated to orders from Gabrielle Chanel. For her, Suzanne Gripoix adapted mother-of-pearl techniques applied to glass micro-pearls, and she also used cast glass, laid while hot and processed like enamel, in extremely fine glass mountings \u2014 ensuring the resounding success of Chanel accessories in Europe and the United States.<\/p>\n
Over time, most of the major fashion houses turned to Gripoix\u2019s studios, including Christian Dior, Fath, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Lacroix, and Jean-Paul Gaultier.<\/p>\n
At the age of 82, Suzanne Gripoix considered handing her workshop down only to her daughter, Josette Gripoix. Her son, Thierry Gripoix-Caluwaerts, took over in 1996. The Gripoix brand was subsequently sold and is still produced today under the name Gripoix.<\/p>\n
The original Gripoix family continues to produce jewelry under the name Augustine Paris, led by Thierry Gripoix.<\/p>\n

Un peu d\u2019histoire sur Gripoix \u2013 un savoir-faire fran\u00e7ais exceptionnel<\/p>\n
Gripoix est l\u2019une des plus anciennes maisons parisiennes sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9es dans la fabrication de bijoux d\u2019imitation et de haute couture. Vers la fin du XIX? si\u00e8cle, Augustine Gripoix reprend le label du designer Gasse, qui produisait des perles en verre imitant les vraies perles. D\u00e8s 1900, les plus grandes maisons de couture de l\u2019\u00e9poque, dont Worth et Paul Poiret, passent commande de bijoux d\u2019imitation aupr\u00e8s de Gripoix.<\/p>\n
\u00c0 partir des ann\u00e9es 1920, l\u2019atelier Gripoix est presque exclusivement consacr\u00e9 aux commandes de Gabrielle Chanel. Pour elle, Suzanne Gripoix adapte des techniques de nacre appliqu\u00e9es sur des micro-perles en verre, et utilise \u00e9galement du verre moul\u00e9, pos\u00e9 \u00e0 chaud et travaill\u00e9 comme de l\u2019\u00e9mail, dans des montures en verre extr\u00eamement fines, assurant ainsi le succ\u00e8s des accessoires Chanel en Europe et aux \u00c9tats-Unis.<\/p>\n
Au fil du temps, la plupart des grandes maisons de couture feront appel aux ateliers Gripoix, notamment Christian Dior, Fath, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Lacroix et Jean-Paul Gaultier.<\/p>\n
\u00c0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 82 ans, Suzanne Gripoix envisage de transmettre son atelier uniquement \u00e0 sa fille, Josette Gripoix. Son fils, Thierry Gripoix-Caluwaerts, lui succ\u00e8de en 1996. La marque Gripoix a ensuite \u00e9t\u00e9 vendue et continue d\u2019\u00eatre produite aujourd\u2019hui sous le nom Gripoix.<\/p>\n
La famille Gripoix d\u2019origine continue de cr\u00e9er des bijoux sous le nom Augustine Paris, dirig\u00e9e par Thierry Gripoix.<\/p>\n
