CRAFT
High Jewellery
Jewellery-making brings together crafts that demand patience, judgement and precision. Selecting a gemstone, preparing the metal and seeking harmony between forms are all part of the same conversation. We love it when these skills meet horology and lend a new sensitivity to a work.
At April H., we believe in the beauty of patient craftsmanship, in materials that carry a story, and in the encounters that bring a work of art into being. Each creation is, above all, a human adventure shaped by the meeting of perspectives, sensibilities and skills.
EXCEPTIONAL artisans
Marta
Marta’s profile will be completed with verified information about her background and practice. We want to give craftspeople a voice rather than speak on their behalf.
April H. Values
At April H., four values guide us: authenticity, creativity, humanity and sharing. They come to life through encounters with artisans, dialogue between crafts and the attention given to every gesture.
Authenticity
We care about origins, the integrity of materials and the sincerity of each gesture. Every creation bears traces of its own story, of the artisans who contributed to it, and of the time devoted to making it.
Creativity
We value encounters between worlds that may initially seem far apart. Watchmaking enters into dialogue with sculpture, colour, glass, marquetry and jewellery. These exchanges give rise to forms we could never have imagined alone.
Sharing
Creation is a dialogue—with craftspeople, artists, collectors and everyone who takes the time to explore our approach. We love seeing our works become occasions for encounters, exchanges and the passing on of knowledge.
Humanity
Behind every work are hands, perspectives, personal journeys, and sometimes years of learning. We want to give these human stories the place they deserve, because they matter to us as much as the object they help bring into being.
WORKS of art
Handcrafted in France
In July, high jewellery brings its understanding of gemstones, settings and light. Behind each detail are painstaking decisions and repeated gestures. Our approach is to bring these sensibilities together around horology, with respect for each contributor’s work.

“Amber is the colour of golden twilight, a warm hue that sets hearts aglow and brightens the mind.”
