It all started with a small jewelry shop.
The global brand 'CHAUMET' dates back to 1780.
The founder, Marie-Étienne Nitot, established a small jewelry shop on Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris.
One day, while passing by, the emperor Napoleon's carriage horse suddenly went wild, and Marie and her staff saved Napoleon.
Nitro's diamonds were originally famous for their quality, but as a gesture of gratitude for saving him from falling, Napoleon promised Marie-Étienne Nitot, "When I become emperor, I will use the jewelry from Nitro."
Subsequently, during Napoleon's coronation, as promised, Nitro was commissioned to create the imperial crown.
From then on, CHAUMET became the official jeweler to Napoleon ♡
Afterward, CHAUMET created luxurious jewelry for the wedding of Napoleon and the Austrian Archduchess Marie-Louise.
The reputation of its royal patronage spread throughout Europe, and starting with the 1900 Exposition Universelle in Paris, it won numerous grand prizes at various international expos, becoming a top-level jeweler known internationally.
