Indeed a famous Parisian shop notices them by chance and asks her to work with them. From that point on Dejean begins fantasizing about the idea of distinctive accessories and, reworking lace and precious materials from the past, discovered at local markets, she creates jewelry and accessories for hair that enchant designers and art galleries[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner el_class=”content-row-width”][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][vc_single_image image=”80561″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” css=”” el_id=”customWidthTitle”][vc_empty_space height=”125px”][vc_custom_heading text=”The most poetic turning point, however, occurs some twenty years ago, with Switzerland, where life takes her; here, her passion for late nineteenth-century passementerie encounters the world of straw.” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:34|text_align:center|color:%23FCB900″ google_fonts=”font_family:Josefin%20Slab%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” css=”.vc_custom_1779701276501{margin-top: 100px !important;margin-bottom: 100px !important;}” el_id=”customWidthTitle”][vc_empty_space height=”125px”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner el_class=”content-row-width”][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”80563″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1779701314679{margin-top: 100px !important;margin-bottom: 100px !important;}” el_class=”content-row-width”]\u201cI was in all the Swiss cantons and in their markets, searching for these wonders,\u201d explains Seiller Dejean, who, inspired by \u201crediscovered\u201d nature, cuts and shapes by hand rough or already braided straw, transforming it into dream-like tiaras with a rustic charm, extremely rich in detail. \u201cWheat, symbol of universal prosperity, is equally celebrated in history by kings and peasants: it is no accident that the goddess of agriculture, Ceres, is depicted with a crown of wheat.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner el_class=”content-row-width”][vc_column_inner][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][vc_single_image image=”80565″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1779701446832{margin-top: 100px !important;margin-bottom: 100px !important;}” el_class=”content-row-width”]To make them even more luminous, the golden brilliance of these jewels, ancient in essence but with a contemporary lightness, is obtained by dying them with tea: all natural, done in a completely homemade manner by the artist herself.<\/p>\n
