Le Rendez-Vous, the new creative scene of French jewelry

From October 2 to 5, 2026, at the Jardin des Tuileries, Francéclat will launch Le Rendez-Vous, a new trade event dedicated to French jewelry led by the Émergence program.

Each year, Fashion Week serves as a key moment for the French jewelry and fine jewelry industry. On Place Vendôme, leading maisons unveil exhibitions and presentations, while emerging jewelers, fashion jewelry brands, and other industry players take advantage of the exceptional concentration of tastemakers, buyers, and French and international media to increase their visibility — each operating independently, without a recognized collective platform.

Le Rendez-Vous was created to address this gap: a collective, professional, and unifying event that provides the industry with a structured and lasting platform for expression, bringing greater visibility to both its stakeholders and its challenges. Its ambition is to elevate the profile of French jewelry and fine jewelry in Paris and internationally, while firmly positioning jewelry at the heart of today’s creative industries.

Le Rendez-Vous offers a new immersive experience designed to showcase every dimension of creative excellence: brands, craftsmanship, image, thought leadership, and culture. Conceived as a curated journey, the event invites industry professionals to discover the sector’s excellence and creative audacity.

5 curated spaces for an immersive experience

Le Rendez-Vous is organized around five complementary spaces, each offering a different perspective on jewelry and fine jewelry.

The Central Stage of the event brings together 24 fine and fashion jewelry brands selected for their creativity, distinctive aesthetic vision, and ability to represent the vitality of contemporary French design. Together, they embody the diversity and dynamism of a sector enjoying growing international recognition.

The Jewelry Monograph: Designed as an immersive exhibition, The Jewelry Monograph presents conceptual and emblematic pieces within a unique artistic environment. Created in collaboration with artistic director and paper artist Baptiste Desjardin, the installation takes the form of a suspended landscape composed of monumental paper structures inspired by nature.

The Conversations: A series of talks and discussions addressing the major challenges facing a rapidly evolving industry. Topics include changing consumer expectations, desirability, distribution strategies, international expansion, brand storytelling, and the role of jewelry within contemporary luxury. Business leaders, experts, and creative voices will share perspectives on the future of the sector.

The Photography Exhibition: Featuring works selected from editorial series produced for various editions of Émergence Magazine, this exhibition reflects a renewed perspective on jewelry imagery. Through the interpretations of photographers from diverse creative backgrounds — invited to move beyond traditional jewelry photography codes — the exhibition explores new ways jewelry can be represented, staged, and reimagined today.

The Bookstore: A carefully curated selection of pspecialized books and magazines dedicated to jewelry, design, craftsmanship, fashion, and creative culture.
