About
The DNA of Les Mères
The design DNA of Les Mères is rooted in motherhood. Each piece is an ode to the perfectly imperfect journey of every woman. Every design is carefully created to reflect organic elegance through raw aesthetics inspired by nature, specifically the power of the sea. The beautifully unique and imperfectly perfect pearls used in the jewellery, symbolises rebirth and therefore are viewed as treasures that hold a lot of emotion.
The collections overflow with a fine range of rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces in sculptural designs. Overproduction and waste is avoided by ensuring that every handmade item, in their Netherlands or Bali ateliers, is produced in limited numbers. The freshwater pearls are carefully sourced from a family-run ‘pearl farm’. All LM jewellery features a solid silver base, from recycled silver with an high quality 18K gold vermeil finish.
