Benoît Noury

Benoit Noury came to jewellery almost by chance and is now a recognised specialist in gemology. His knowledge has
been built up during his long experience in the jewellery industry, including 20 years spent in Angers as a workshop manager.

In 2010, Benoit Noury decided to open his own workshop. He became known for his creations, based on the world of vegetation. Today, Benoit Noury joins the Nascendi experience and puts his creativity at your service through his semi-measured models.
