More about the designer Philippe Ferrandis

Philippe Ferrandis broke into the couture jewellery design limelight in Paris in 1986. Since then he has designed for Chanel, Balmain, Givenchy, Oscar de la Renta and Nina Ricci amongst others and his work has evolved both in technique and sources of inspiration ever since. He has always remained firmly at the forefront of cutting edge design.

Philippe’s father, when asked if his son displayed any sign of creativity as a young child, replied ‘If you gave Philippe two chairs and a curtain you soon had a theatre’.

For Philippe Ferrandis, women with strong personalities are a constant source of inspiration. Coco Chanel, in his view, revolutionized the concept of jewellery. For the first time creativity and style were more important than the materials it was made from. Coco didn’t regard the wearing of jewellery as a way of showing off her bank balance. She regarded the wearing of jewellery as an enhancement of her style and of her elegance.

The same can be said of Swarovski crystal – once regarded as a simple imitation of gemstones. Thanks to Swarovski, limitless possibilities for designers such as Anton Heunis and Philippe Ferrandis are provided.

Philippe Ferrandis is a Swarovski award winner and his customers are reassured when they know his designs are made with this crystal. Swarovski crystal is the luxury in fashion jewellery – it’s simply unique. Philippe has been sought many times for his artistic collaboration on the Couture Daniel Swarovski collections.
