About this collection
Everything about our jewellery
18k gold, also called 750/1000 gold, contains 75% pure gold alloyed with 25% precious metals like silver or copper. It's the reference purity for French fine jewelry: it delivers a rich, deep golden hue, excellent resistance to oxidation, and superior durability compared to 9k or 14k gold. Since 2014, Atelier Paulin has hand-shaped its yellow 18k gold jewelry in Paris with rigorous artisan care, working the precious gold wire by hand to give it volume and character. Each piece bears the eagle hallmark, France's official guarantee of 18k gold purity.
Gold-filled jewelry has a brass core wrapped in a thick layer of gold bonded through mechanical lamination — the gold layer accounts for 5% of the total weight and offers excellent everyday durability. Solid 18k gold, on the other hand, is a fully precious alloy: the wire, the solder, every millimeter of the piece is 18k gold. It's a long-term investment, meant to be passed down through generations. Both options are hand-shaped in our Paris atelier with the same gestural precision; the difference lies in the depth of precious material and the intrinsic value of the piece.
Gold plated (electroplating) deposits a micron-thin layer of gold onto a base metal, so it wears off quickly. Gold-filled jewelry mechanically bonds a substantial layer of gold onto a brass core — far more resistant than plating. Solid 18k gold, finally, is a precious alloy through and through: no base metal, no layer to wear away. At Atelier Paulin, we work exclusively with 14k gold-filled and solid 18k gold — never low-end gold plating — to guarantee the longevity and integrity of every hand-shaped piece.
Yes. Every Atelier Paulin piece is covered by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. In solid 18k gold, the material itself is virtually unalterable under normal wear conditions. If a solder joint were to fail or a deformation occurred from an impact, our atelier repairs or restores the piece within a week. This warranty doesn't cover loss or severe accidental impact, but it reflects our confidence in the care taken at every step of hand-shaping: work-hardening the wire, laser micro-welding at tension points, hand finishing.
Absolutely. This is the heart of Atelier Paulin's craft: hand-shaping 18k gold wire into three-dimensional letters, names, words, or initials. You choose the text at checkout (up to 10 characters depending on the design — check the product page for the exact limit). The letters aren't traced or cut: they're sculpted in three dimensions, character by character, by an artisan in our atelier. The result is a one-of-a-kind piece, legible from every angle, carrying a personal signature and becoming a jewelry piece meant to be passed down.
Yes, depending on the design. Some pieces allow you to hand-shape a date (day/month/year), GPS coordinates, or a simple symbol like a heart or crescent moon. Everything is made from yellow 18k gold wire, hand-shaped by our artisans — never stamped or industrially cut. The character limit varies by design — check the specific product page or contact our team to confirm feasibility before ordering. For unusual requests (long phrases, foreign languages with diacritical marks), our team reviews feasibility within 24 business hours.
18k gold (750/1000) jewelry is hand-shaped within 2 to 5 business days after order confirmation. This timeframe includes shaping the precious wire letter by letter, work-hardening the metal to give it its shape memory, laser micro-welding at tension points, and hand finishing. DHL Express shipping is added on top: 24 to 48 hours within France, 48 to 72 hours across Europe and worldwide. For a birthday or a specific event, we recommend ordering at least two weeks ahead for a comfortable margin.
18k gold is naturally resistant to fresh and salt water: it doesn't oxidize or tarnish. You can absolutely wear your Atelier Paulin jewelry in the shower or at the beach. To preserve the piece's shine long-term, avoid prolonged contact with heavily chlorinated water (like pool water) and rinse briefly with clean water after saltwater exposure. If your piece includes a textile cord (parachute thread or linen), it won't hold up the same way — we recommend removing it before swimming.
Yes. 18k gold (750/1000) is one of the best-tolerated alloys for sensitive skin. Atelier Paulin uses no nickel-containing alloys in its yellow 18k gold pieces: our jewelry complies with European REACH standards on nickel content (Directive 2004/96/EC). If you have a known metal allergy, we recommend contacting us to confirm the exact alloy composition of your chosen piece. People who've reacted to gold-plated brass jewelry generally don't react to our solid 18k gold pieces.
Caring for 18k gold is simple: wipe the piece with a soft, lint-free cloth after wearing. For a deeper clean, soak the jewelry for a few minutes in lukewarm water with a bit of mild soap, gently scrub with a soft-bristled toothbrush, rinse with clean water, and dry with a clean cloth. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners or chemical baths without consulting our atelier first. Store your piece in the cotton pouch provided at delivery to prevent scratches. Monthly cleaning is enough to keep the hand-shaped precious metal looking its best.
18k gold holds up well to sweat and moderate physical activity. For high-impact activities (weightlifting, contact sports, climbing), we recommend removing the piece to avoid direct impact on the metal or snagging risks. The hand-shaped precious wire is designed for everyday wear and benefits from work-hardening — a cold-working process that gives it shape memory and life-proof resilience — but a sharp, localized impact can still deform even 18k gold. In case of accidental deformation, our aftercare team repairs the piece within a week.
Yes. Most of our yellow 18k gold bracelets come in multiple sizes (S, M, L based on wrist circumference), listed on each product page. Some designs can be made to custom measurements for wrists outside the standard range: contact our atelier before ordering with your measurement in centimeters. For 18k gold rings, we offer sizes from US 4.5 to US 10; a sizing guide is available on our site. If the size you receive doesn't fit quite right, our aftercare team will review adjustment options depending on the design.
The choice depends on the recipient's lifestyle and style. The 18k gold bracelet is our most-worn everyday piece — visible and easy to size (S/M/L covers most wrists). The necklace suits people who wear few rings or bracelets and prefer a discreet, elegant piece worn close to the body. Rings require a precise size: if you're unsure, a bracelet or necklace is more forgiving of slight sizing guesses. Across all these formats, personalizing with a name or initial in hand-shaped gold wire turns the piece into a memorable, one-of-a-kind gift.
Yes, entirely. Since 2014, every piece has been hand-shaped in our Paris atelier, located in the 9th arrondissement. The 18k gold wire is worked on-site by our artisans: bending, work-hardening, laser micro-welding, finishing. We don't outsource any manufacturing step abroad. Raw materials — certified gold ingots and wire — are sourced from European refiners. Choosing an Atelier Paulin piece means supporting a living craft rooted in a Paris neighborhood, and receiving a piece traceable from raw wire to packaged jewelry.
We place real importance on the origin of our materials. The 18k gold used at Atelier Paulin is sourced from European dealers and refiners who follow Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) traceability standards. We favor recycled or conflict-free certified gold supply chains whenever technically and economically feasible. Our atelier operates on a short supply chain: few intermediaries, measured volumes, zero waste of offcuts (precious wire scraps are recovered and recycled). We're committed to transparent communication on these topics and regularly update our materials policy.
Every Atelier Paulin piece ships in a thoughtful presentation: a natural cotton pouch and a rigid gift box, packed inside a discreet, secure parcel. The packaging is designed to be gifted as-is, with no extra wrapping needed. A personalized note can be added at checkout (a field is provided during payment) and will be printed on an elegant postcard-sized card. If you'd like premium gift wrapping with ribbon, mention it in your order notes — our team will do their best depending on the season. Special edition boxes are sometimes offered around Christmas or Mother's Day.
Non-personalized jewelry can be returned within 30 days of receipt, no questions asked. Returns are free within mainland France. Personalized pieces (name, initial, date, hand-shaped word) are excluded from the standard right of withdrawal since they're custom-made at your specific request. In the event of a proven manufacturing defect on a personalized piece, we offer free repair or replacement. For any questions before purchasing, our team is available by email and chat to help confirm your choices — especially sizing and text — before production begins.
After production (2 to 5 business days for 18k gold), orders ship via DHL Express: 24 to 48 hours within mainland France, 48 to 72 hours across Europe and most countries worldwide. Every package is insured for the declared value, tracked in real time, and requires a signature on delivery. For shipments outside the European Union, customs duties and import taxes are already included in the price shown on our site (DDP — Delivered Duty Paid shipping): no hidden fees on arrival. You'll receive an email notification with tracking number as soon as your order ships.
It's one of the most meaningful birth gifts you can give. A yellow 18k gold bracelet or necklace hand-shaped with a child's name becomes a piece meant to be passed down: it lasts through the years without wear, and the child can keep it into adulthood. 18k gold doesn't cause skin allergies and holds up to a child's everyday activity. You can choose a size suited to a newborn or a young child depending on the design. Be sure to note the child's age or wrist measurement in your order comments so our team can advise on the best fit.
Choosing a piece hand-shaped from gold wire means choosing something that carries the gesture of the person who made it. Unlike a piece that's cut or cast industrially, every letter and curve has been formed by hand, character by character: there's intention in every detail. 18k gold reinforces this symbolism: an unalterable metal that has been associated with permanence, love, and memory since antiquity. To give or wear an Atelier Paulin piece is to carry a word, a name, or a precious moment in a material that won't change — a fragment of personal history, hand-shaped to last.
