Hand-shaped in Paris
Each piece is formed by hand from a single continuous precious wire, then work-hardened as a whole. A Paris atelier since 2014.

Our guaranteesChoosing a gift for a man is never straightforward: it calls for a piece that lasts through the years without going out of style, understated for daily wear yet meaningful. Atelier Paulin's Gifts For Him collection brings together thirty pieces hand-shaped in Paris, designed for a birthday, a birth, a wedding, or simply the wish to give a gift without a specific occasion. Cord bracelets, rings, necklaces, brooches and earrings come in 14k gold-filled, sterling silver or 18k gold, with or without personalization.
Our Gifts For Him: the selection
Atelier Paulin's men's edit is built around three families. First, the personalizable pieces: the Original Personalized Cord Bracelet, the Men's Waxed Personalized Cord Bracelet or the Capital Initial Necklace hold a name, an initial or a short word hand-shaped in precious wire. Next, the signature styles, such as the O Pure Bracelet, the O Cube Bracelet or the Hera Pure Ring No. 3, designed to be worn alone or stacked. Finally, the statement pieces: the Personalized Safety Pin Brooch, the Quent Ring or the Lucky Charms Clover Cord Bracelet, which add a bolder detail. Those drawn to gemstones will find the Nonza Riviere Bracelet in blue sapphire or the Nonza Riviere Bracelet in emerald, for a dressier finish. To browse the full men's edit sorted by occasion, the Men's Jewelry page rounds out this selection.
How to choose based on what you want to shape or the occasion
The choice often starts with the material. 14k gold-filled offers a warm finish at an accessible price, ideal for a first personalized piece such as the Corsica Cord Bracelet. Sterling silver, featured on the O Cube Bracelet – silver, suits lighter skin tones or a more understated style. 18k gold, reserved for pieces like the Capital Initial Necklace in white gold or the Hera Twisted Ring No. 3, is meant for those seeking a noble, long-lasting material.
Next comes the word or name to shape. A single initial (a child's name, one's own initial) remains the most understated choice for a discreet bracelet or necklace. A short word, a date or a nickname works well on cord bracelets, which offer more flexibility. For a man who never wears personalized jewelry, a signature piece with no inscription, such as the O Pure Bracelet, makes for a gentle introduction.
When to give Gifts For Him
A personalized cord bracelet naturally marks a birth: the child's name hand-shaped on the father's wrist accompanies the early months without feeling heavy-handed. For a wedding anniversary, a ring like the Hera Twisted Ring No. 3 or an 18k gold necklace makes a gift meant to be passed down. For Father's Day, lighter pieces such as the Cy Bracelet or the Leo Necklace suit immediate, everyday wear. For a year-end gift or an occasion with no fixed date, a brooch such as the Original Personalized Brooch adds a more distinctive touch, less expected than a classic piece of jewelry. Personalized cord bracelets, the most requested style in this selection, are gathered in full on the Personalized Cord Bracelets page.
Materials, personalization and care
Since 2014, Atelier Paulin has hand-shaped every piece in Paris from precious wire worked by hand, with no industrial engraving involved: the word or initial takes form directly in the metal, hand-shaped strand by strand by one of the atelier's artisans, using a cold work-hardening technique that reinforces the piece's strength over time. Personalizable styles accept a variable number of characters depending on the chosen format, generally up to about ten letters for a short word or a name. As for care, gold-filled and 18k gold pieces should be cleaned with lukewarm water and a soft cloth, avoiding prolonged contact with seawater or chlorine; sterling silver may tarnish slightly when exposed to air and regains its shine with a suitable polishing cloth. Every order ships in a gift box, ready to be given with no extra wrapping needed.
Frequently asked questions

Which material should I choose for a first piece of men's jewelry?
14k gold-filled remains the most versatile entry point: durable for everyday wear, it suits most styles and budgets, before moving on to sterling silver or 18k gold for a dressier piece.
What is the manufacturing time?
Sterling silver and gold-filled pieces are hand-shaped in 1 to 3 business days; 18k gold pieces require 2 to 5 business days. DHL Express delivery is added on top of that — allow 48 hours within Europe.
Are these pieces suited to everyday wear?
