Gem Pursuit

Juliet Weir-de La Rochefoucauld


Listen Later

To round off our sixth season Golden Girls: Unsung Heroines of Jewellery, we welcome a very special guest, Juliet Weir-de La Rochefoucauld, author of Twenty-First Century Jewelry Designers: An Inspired Style.

Juliet is a Dublin native but is now based in France, so we were so lucky that she could join us in our studio when she was in town to give us some amazing insights into the women who changed the jewellery world in the 20th century.

We talk more about all of our Golden Girls - Jeanne Toussaint, Suzanne Belperron, Alma Pihl and Elsa Peretti - and Juliet provides some context for us around their influence and where they sit in the pantheon of great jewellery designers.

We also discuss some of the great female designers who you may not have heard of (yet!) who may turn out to be the next Jeanne, Suzanne, Alma or Elsa!
