Jonas Bowman
As precious as we are
PRECIOUS WISH
A precious jewel is made of rare metal, precious stones. And anything else. Such as how to shape and assemble desires. Jewelry claiming crafts, know-how that venture, the noble acoquiné in crude. This is a ring with interchangeable beads, a signet female, a male ring. It is a collection of unique pieces, small series, lines capsules and even fantasies. Precious.
UNDER THE INFLUENCE
To take its inspiration, it looks up to the volumes of architecture and urban perspectives. It also looks to the tune of insects, plants and objects polished by the sea You look behind you, the twenties, the scrolls and arabesques. Or near the body of a woman. That's how a bridge influence a necklace, a bracelet that will create shaped branch, ribbons silver as wood chips.
DOUBLE TALENT
A brand, a name, it sometimes hides two talents. So Jonas and Lizzie. The story of a seeker who meets an inspired inspirer. The shaper and designer. The Art and Practice. "What could be done" and "What will happen". Made a tandem of evidence.
MIRROR
A kid goes to pieces carved with a knife in adult life: the size of amber in his father's workshop in London. Back to Marseille and learning of gold, silver. The beginnings of Jonas for short. Who transmits, too, in training future designers. Turn of the century with a major exhibition at the Fashion Museum of Marseille for the creations of haute couture Fred Sathal. Travel to the U.S. to learn even from the best jewelers in Santa Fe. Then today's workshop, two doors of the apartment. The creation of life. A brand that is asserting itself.
