Meet our founders

Olivia & Thierry

Olivia is the founder and jewelry designer behind Edès. Growing up around diamonds in her family's business, she was always captivated by their eternal beauty and mystery. As the fifth generation and first woman, she felt inspired to carry forward their tradition, but with a fresh and creative vision of her own, and that is how Edès was born.

Edès Fine Jewelry is all about elegance, clean and simple lines, yet with a twist. Olivia loves working with asymmetry, vibrant gemstones and the unique color tones of diamonds, from classic white to rich yellow, as well as the warm tones of champagne and brownish diamonds.

Thierry is our in-house diamond expert, bringing 38 years of experience as a diamond trader in Antwerp, Belgium. With his sharp eye, finding the perfect diamond suited to your wishes will be an effortless experience.

Together, they combine diamond expertise with jewelry design to craft pieces meant to accompany you throughout life's meaningful moments.

    In ancient Greek mythology, diamonds were believed to be tears of the gods or "splinters from shooting stars". Edès was derived from its French translation "éclats d'étoiles, viewing diamonds as mystical and eternal as they are to this day.
