Horta Collection
The Horta collection translates Victor Horta’s Art Nouveau architecture into jewellery through fluid lines, forms drawn from nature, controlled movement and exacting craftsmanship.

The Horta Mandarin ring is set with a spessartite garnet in luminous mandarin tones, cut in the shape of a full raindrop. Held in 18-carat rose gold, the stone rests within fluid curves that alternate between frosted and polished finishes. The design recalls the organic lines and changing light of Victor Horta’s interiors, balancing natural form with architectural discipline.
The Horta choker translates the flowing lines of Victor Horta’s Art Nouveau architecture into a flexible structure of 18-carat gold. Tiny concealed hinges allow the necklace to lie completely flat and even to turn inside out, giving it an exceptional freedom of movement.
The upper surfaces are highly polished, while the sides have a finely brushed finish. This contrast emphasises the continuous line of the design. The choker can be worn closely around the neck or slightly lower as a short necklace, with comfort considered throughout its construction.
This Horta Élan ring takes its form from the three lowest steps of Victor Horta’s sweeping staircase. Three bands of 18-carat rose gold rise around the finger, following the rhythm and curvature of the steps. A London Blue Topaz raindrop cabochon rests within the lower curve, while brushed surfaces and polished edges emphasise the movement of the design.
The Horta cuff takes its form from Horta’s transformation of plant growth into structure. One line rises directly, while a second curves around it like a supporting stem. Polished upper surfaces contrast with velvety matte sides, emphasising the depth and movement of the gold.
The Horta collection draws upon Victor Horta’s architecture, where structure, movement, light and forms from nature are held in precise balance. Its flowing lines, rising curves and carefully controlled asymmetries are translated into contemporary jewels in 18-carat rose gold.
Polished and matte surfaces define the movement of each piece, while custom-cut gemstones introduce colour and light. The result is a collection shaped by architectural discipline and the sensuous clarity of Horta’s Art Nouveau.
The Horta Volute ring is set with a raindrop-shaped peridot held within an asymmetrical structure of 18-carat rose gold. The gold line broadens and tapers as it curves around the stone, recalling the volutes and continuous movement of Victor Horta’s Art Nouveau architecture. Polished edges contrast with matte surfaces, defining the contours and depth of the design.
The Horta earrings are formed from continuous lines of 18-carat rose gold that broaden, narrow and curve through the length of the design. A polished upper surface contrasts with matte-finished sides, emphasising the movement of the gold. Switching the earrings from one ear to the other reverses the direction of the curves, offering two distinct compositions around the face.
“In this collection, we wanted to explore how Horta transformed line into three-dimensional form. His cast-iron stair railings, balconies, sculpted columns, door furniture and chandeliers showed us how structure could appear to grow, turn and move through space. We translated that sense of movement into gold, allowing each jewel to change in width, direction and surface as it follows the body.”

The Horta Rythme ring is formed from three interlacing lines of 18-carat rose gold. They broaden, taper and loop across the finger, creating an open structure that changes according to the angle from which it is viewed. Polished edges contrast with matte surfaces, clarifying the movement and depth of the design.
The Horta clip earrings take their lines from the fluid stair railings of Victor Horta’s interiors. Each is set with a luminous raindrop-shaped peridot and formed in 18-carat rose gold.
The pair is deliberately asymmetrical: one earring extends into a long, tapering line, while the other remains compact. They may be worn together or acquired individually, allowing the composition to be adapted to the wearer.
