THE FOUNDERS – Alexis Blez & Eric Thevenet
It was while seeking to have THE perfect engagement ring made that one of the founders, Alexis Blez, found himself confronted with the obstacle course. It all seemed more opaque than mysterious to him. He then began a quest, which almost became an obsession. This led him to push the door of workshops across France, to meet jewelers and discover secrets that are too well kept.
It is with Eric Thevenet, a friend for 15 years, that they began to imagine 58 Facettes. The bond they forged with each jeweler then became their driving force to build this ambitious project. The desire to share this know-how, this creativity and jewelry heritage recognized worldwide led them to quit their activities to devote themselves to 58 Facettes.

The name “58 Facettes”
The name draws its inspiration from the history of diamonds and the passion of the craftsmen who, through the ages, have sought to sublimate this stone, to achieve a perfect shine.
If modern techniques show that the ideal cut of a “brilliant” diamond has 57 facets, it is the result of a long process of historical iterations which have led the profession to focus initially on a round cut: 58 facettes. It is considered to be the origin of the “brilliant” diamond.
It is at this historic size that our brand 58 Facettes refers and pays homage to.
