MATERIAL -

The sapphire belongs to the corundum family, just like the ruby. So-called “rainbow” sapphires are a natural selection of multicolored sapphires (blue, pink, yellow, green, or orange) creating a luminous and harmonious gradient.
Each stone is hand-cut and carefully selected for its unique hue.
A symbol of joy and balance, the rainbow sapphire combines strength and brilliance, resulting in a refined and enduring jewel.

CARE

Multicolored sapphires are durable stones that are easy to care for.
An occasional cleaning with lukewarm soapy water and gentle drying is enough to maintain their brilliance.

How is the handcrafted nature of Atelier Paulin jewelry guaranteed ?

Our commitment is rooted in the excellence of French craftsmanship. Each Atelier Paulin piece is entirely hand-crafted in our ateliers, without molds or duplication. This rare savoir-faire of working with wire gives every jewel its unique and authentic character, a true signature of the Maison, found nowhere else.

What is the philosophy behind an Atelier Paulin jewel?

Our mission is to give form to connection. Each jewel, whether personalized or from our collections, is a bearer of meaning, created to express, unite, and pass on what truly matters. We design pieces that become luminous witnesses to your family, love, or friendship stories, meant to be cherished and handed down through time.

Can this sapphire rainbow tennis necklace be personalized?

No, this piece isn't designed for personalization (a word, name, or initial). This design's expression comes from its rainbow sapphire arrangement itself: the color and placement of the stones already compose its identity. Not every piece from the atelier is made for personalization, and this one is meant to be worn exactly as hand-shaped. If you're looking for a piece to personalize with a word or initial, the atelier offers other collections designed specifically for that, such as the Original Mantra Necklace or our initial pieces. Feel free to reach out to customer service, who can guide you to the piece best suited to what you have in mind.

How is this necklace handcrafted at the atelier?

Since 2014, Atelier Paulin has hand-shaped precious wire in Paris. For a piece like this tennis necklace, the process reflects the Maison's core craftsmanship: the wire is shaped by hand with pliers, then the entire piece is cold work-hardened once shaping is complete, giving it shape memory and resilience. Tension points also benefit from laser micro-welding, a reinforcement technique that strengthens the structure without ever compromising the single continuous wire. This combination of artisan techniques is what sets every Atelier Paulin creation apart.

What's the hand-shaping time for this necklace before shipping?

Hand-shaping time depends on the material chosen: 1 to 3 business days for sterling silver and 14k gold-filled, and 2 to 5 business days for 18k gold. This timeframe covers only the time spent at the atelier shaping the piece, not shipping. Once hand-shaped, the jewelry is then delivered to your door, with delivery time added on top of the shaping time. To find out the exact material of this necklace and its precise timeline, we invite you to check the product page or contact customer service.

How long does home delivery take for this necklace?

Home delivery takes 2 to 5 days, shipping included. This timeframe is separate from the hand-shaping time at the atelier: the precious wire is first shaped by hand, then the finished piece makes its way to your address. If you're in Paris, two boutique-exclusive options are available: come have your jewelry personalized in person in about thirty minutes, or enjoy same-day courier delivery. These options don't replace standard shipping but offer an alternative for Parisian customers in a hurry.

Can I exchange or get a refund for this necklace?

It depends on the nature of the piece. A non-personalized piece, like this necklace if it wasn't customized upon order, can be refunded or exchanged. However, a piece hand-shaped to order with a word chosen by the customer cannot be exchanged or refunded, as it was created specifically for her. We invite you to reach out to Atelier Paulin's customer service for the exact terms that apply to your order, as we're unable to state a specific timeframe or additional condition here.

How long is the warranty on this necklace?

This necklace, like all jewelry hand-shaped by Atelier Paulin, comes with a one-year warranty from the date of purchase. This warranty covers any defects related to the shaping of the piece. The one exception at the Maison: the shine of 14k gold-filled comes with a lifetime warranty, specific to that material alone. If this necklace is offered in sterling silver or 18k gold, the one-year warranty applies. For any questions about how this warranty works, the atelier's customer service team is here to help.

Is this necklace's wire made from a single piece or several assembled elements?

At Atelier Paulin, the shaping technique relies on a single continuous piece of precious metal wire, hand-shaped from start to finish. This is what sets the atelier's work apart: rather than a pattern etched into a flat surface, the shape emerges directly from the wire itself, hand-shaped with pliers, then cold work-hardened across the entire piece for lasting strength. This continuity of the wire has been at the heart of the Maison's identity since 2014, and applies to all its precious wire creations, including tennis-style designs made of several linked elements.

What is sterling silver and is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Sterling silver is an alloy containing 92.5% pure silver combined with 7.5% other metals, with a minimum fineness of 925. It's known for its bright, luminous white color. It's a hypoallergenic, antibacterial metal, particularly well-suited to sensitive skin. Like any living precious metal, it can develop a fine, natural, and reversible layer of oxidation over time from contact with air or moisture, without affecting the quality of the jewelry. Simple care with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is enough to restore its shine.

How should I care for this necklace day to day depending on its material?

Care instructions vary depending on the material. For sterling silver, we recommend avoiding pools, showers, and sports, and cleaning the piece with warm soapy water and a soft cloth; a fine natural oxidation may appear, which is reversible and harmless. For 14k gold-filled, no special care is needed — a soft cloth is enough, and water isn't a concern: showers, pools, and the beach are all fine, with the only precaution being to remove it during intense physical activity. For 18k gold, simple care with warm water and mild soap, followed by drying with a soft cloth, is also sufficient.

Can this necklace be worn at the pool or the beach?

This depends entirely on the necklace's material. If hand-shaped in 14k gold-filled, it's not affected by water: showers, pools, and the beach are all fine without particular precaution, the only recommendation being to remove it during intense physical activity to preserve the delicacy of the hand-shaped form. If in sterling silver, we recommend avoiding pools, showers, and sports, as this living metal can react to prolonged contact with chlorinated or salt water. For 18k gold, no special care is needed, but we recommend confirming the exact material of this necklace before extended swimming.

Where and since when has Atelier Paulin been hand-shaping its jewelry?

Atelier Paulin is a Paris-based atelier that has hand-shaped its creations since 2014. Every piece, including this tennis necklace, comes from artisanal work with precious wire: shaped by hand with pliers, then cold work-hardened across the entire piece for lasting strength and resilience over time. Tension points benefit from laser micro-welding, a reinforcement technique that strengthens the jewelry's structure. This Parisian roots and more than a decade of continuity are the foundation of the craftsmanship the Maison brings to every hand-shaped piece.

What's the difference between 18k gold and 14k gold-filled?

18k gold, also called 750/1000 gold, is solid gold wire composed of 75% pure gold, sometimes referred to as traditional French gold. Every 18k gold piece is hallmarked, certified, and hand-shaped by one of the Maison's jewelry artisans, and comes in yellow, rose, and white. 14k gold-filled, meanwhile, features a solid layer of 585/1000 gold bonded to a base metal, containing 50 to 100 times more gold than traditional gold plating; it's only available in yellow and rose. Both materials offer lasting wear, but with distinct compositions and processes.

Can I have a piece personalized in person at the Paris atelier?

Yes, this is a service exclusive to Atelier Paulin's Paris boutique: you can come have your jewelry personalized in person, in about thirty minutes. This option is in addition to the same-day courier delivery available for Parisian customers. This service applies to pieces designed for personalization; for this sapphire rainbow tennis necklace, which doesn't fall into that category, the question doesn't directly apply, but it illustrates a strong differentiator of the Maison, rarely offered elsewhere, across its full range of personalizable creations.

Is this sapphire rainbow necklace available in multiple materials?

Atelier Paulin hand-shapes its creations in sterling silver, 14k gold-filled (available in yellow and rose), and 18k gold, available in yellow, rose, and white. To find out which material(s) are specifically offered for this sapphire rainbow tennis necklace, we invite you to check the product page or reach out to our customer service team, who can confirm the options available for this particular design. Each material has its own care requirements and color characteristics, to be chosen based on your daily wear and skin sensitivity.

Does this necklace make a good birthday or new baby gift?

A necklace hand-shaped by Atelier Paulin, presented in its gift box, naturally lends itself to gift-giving, whether for a birthday, a new baby, or another meaningful occasion. The Maison has hand-shaped its jewelry in Paris since 2014, with attention given to every piece that makes it an object meant to be passed down. That said, we can't speak to how this specific design fits a particular occasion symbolically — it's your intention that gives the piece its meaning. For any questions about possible personalization options for this necklace, our customer service team is happy to help.

Can I wear this necklace every day without damaging it?

This depends on the material chosen. A 14k gold-filled necklace requires no special care and isn't affected by water: it can accompany your daily life, showers and swimming included, except during intense physical activity, when it's best to remove it to preserve the delicacy of the hand-shaped wire. A sterling silver necklace is a living metal that can develop natural, reversible oxidation from contact with air or moisture; in that case, avoid pools, showers, and sports. An 18k gold necklace also requires no special care, and cleaning with warm water and mild soap is enough. The right care routine always depends on your piece's material.

Is this necklace's clasp adjustable?

We don't have confirmed information about the type of clasp or any adjustability for this particular design. Rather than stating a feature we can't guarantee, we invite you to check the product page for the sapphire rainbow tennis necklace or contact our customer service team, who can confirm this technical detail precisely. The Maison hand-shapes every piece with care, and it matters to us to share only verified information rather than assumptions based on the model's name.

Are the rainbow sapphire stones on this necklace natural?

The exact origin and nature of the stones on this necklace aren't information we can confirm with certainty for this particular design. We'd rather not make a claim on this point than risk an inaccuracy that would reflect on the Maison. For a reliable answer about the nature of the rainbow sapphire stones on this necklace, we recommend reaching out to our customer service team, who can provide precise, documented details for this design.

How do I know if this necklace's length will suit me?

The length of this sapphire rainbow tennis necklace isn't something we can confirm in this context, and we'd rather not share an uncertain figure. To choose the length best suited to how you'll wear it, we recommend checking the dimensions listed on the product page itself, or reaching out to our customer service team, who can guide you based on your body type and how you plan to wear it, whether alone or layered with other Atelier Paulin hand-shaped pieces.
