The Bovy collection is inspired by a masterpiece of the art of medal making devoted to Chopin: a work of Jean-François-Antoine Bovy.
In 1837, this Geneva-based artisan portrayed the artist in the left profile in a medallion, his talent and dexterity earning making it recognised a masterpiece from the moment of origin. The way the composer is presented in Bovy’s medallions has become an icon that inspires artists to this day. The jewellery was made of noble metals of highest assay, and manual polishing has made it possible to retain the tiniest detail with crystal-clear perfection.

Heart Collection
Chopin’s dream was for his heart to remain in Poland forever. Chopin spent half of his life in Poland while his last years in Paris. The last place of his stay was an apartment at No. 12 Vendome Square. Chopin was buried in the Pere Lachaise cemetery – the most famous necropolis in the world. But his heart rested forever in his beloved homeland in the Church of the Holy Cross in Warsaw.
