Tucked away on the site of a former photo frame factory in

Paris, the jewelry store offers a bohemian vibe.

Hidden in a courtyard in the heart of the Saint-Honoré district in Paris is a

surprising find for jewelry lovers. It is here that collectors and curators Serge

and Caroline Muller have opened Mad Lords, a hippie-chic, 200-square-meter

concept store, offering collections that exude spirituality and rock ’n’ roll.

Located in a factory that previously manufactured photo frames, in its

heyday, the site hosted big-name photographers such as Robert Doisneau

and Willy Ronis. Its successful transformation into a lively jewelry store is a

fitting tribute to the creativity of the designers and craftspeople whose work

is displayed. A far cry from the typical formal jewelry store, its urban decor,

natural light and a cool music selection give it a festive and bohemian vibe.

This nontraditional flagship offers its customers a selection by hundreds of

designers from around the world. There is a strong focus on American

jewelry, featuring recognized North American houses such as Foundrae by

Beth Bugdaycay, Marlo Laz, Pat Flynn and Royal Nomad Jewelry. Jacquie Aiche

and Maor Cohen have their own mini-stores, each with a 20-square-meter

space dedicated to their trendy brands. The place’s international vibe gives it

a unique aura.

From the inspiring New York City to the uninhibited Los Angeles, Bali’s

temples and Native American cultures, the Mullers — and their team of 15 —

are guided in their bold choices by two ideas: breaking codes and introducing

ethnic jewelry. And for four years, this hidden jewelry spot has managed to

surprise us and renew its talent — a break from the many stores that feature

nothing but soulless accessories.

an opportunity to enjoy high-quality service and to choose a jewel from the

store’s incredible collections.

At the end of November 2018, having already introduced its clients to yoga

and meditation, the house celebrated its anniversary with a guitar show. It

was an opportunity to remember that jewelry must remain, always, a joyful

celebration.
