THE Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition (DJWE) has become the place where exclusivit­y, art, beauty, legacy, and unique craftsmans­hip come in one place to tell the unforgetta­ble tale behind each jewel, attracting new entrant during every edition.

Printemps Doha introduced, exclusivel­y in Qatar, orenz B umer, the only famous independen­t jeweller at Place Vend me in Paris during the exhibition. Jeweller and creator of the Place Vend me, orenz B umer is renowned as one of the most talented artists of his generation.

Since his first creation in 1 2, his creative effervesce­nce has driven him to traverse many landscapes, with a language that is both classical and iconoclast­ic. When Franco-German jeweller orenz B umer, a trained engineer, set up his own Maison in 1 2, it was not his first try. The insatiable designer behind Maison Chanel’s jewellery for 20 years, then artistic director for jewellery at ouis Vuitton until 2015, quickly stood out because of his architectu­ral, disruptive creations. His original and often spectacula­r pieces are characteri­sed by a hint of poetic malice, like his ‘ es Ins parables’ ring which features two lovebirds.

Often unclassifi­able, orenz B umer’s creations offer a spectacle of joyful complexity, transmitte­d by virtuosic playfulnes­s and entangling colours as if to liberate light.

Purely natural, all the stones of the Maison are selected by orenz B umer himself. A bespoke creation constitute­s the historical savoir-faire of the Maison.

In his eyes, orenz B umer invites each client to “dare to do more” in order to offer them a unique piece of jewellery, like an external brilliance of what one carries within themselves.

The singularit­y of the creations and the boutique reflects the fascinatin­g career of jeweller orenz B umer.

Precious stones, gold and various materials, as well as their physical properties, hold no secrets for this exceptiona­l creator who likes to shake up certain jewellery codes and introduce certain exclusive tech-niques such as reverse setting, olfactory titanium or meteorite.

This jeweller, always ready to embark on a new creative and revolution­ary adventure, is

also particular­ly attached to the heritage of the Place Vend me and highlights the various exceptiona­l Parisian and French skills.
