Fabian de Montjoye

Fabian and Thibaud are awesome. My husband and I enjoyed meeting them and chatting about everything from jewels to real estate in Paris and French countryside.
We were planning to purchase a special Christmas gift for me here in Paris. Jewelry is always a good idea. We had just left a high end diamond boutique and had a ring on hold. As we were strolling down Rue Honore, a beautiful antique ruby ring caught my eye in the window of the shop. We walked in and the experience was memorable.
Fabian educated me about rubies. He told me that this ruby is rare, dark red from Burma. He explained the differences of rubies and where they are from. He commented that this ring was made before WWI, because the rubies from Burma were more authentic without correction of stone flaws.
Thibaud was as friendly and charming as he was entertaining. We later learned that he is an actor (this makes sense). Thibaud did his best to help me decide between two amazingly stunning rings. The decision was painful, but once I made it, I was extremely happy.
We left the ring for sizing. I can’t wait to pick it up tomorrow.
What a great experience. My husband and I are as pleased in meeting these two kind and interesting Frenchmen as we are in finding the most amazing gift.

The Mr & I were seeking vintage jewelry shops for a nice token of our visit to Paris & we understood rue St Honore might be a nice area of town to find just such a shop
We liked the selection in the windows of Fabian de Montjoye & decided to go inside
The nice gentleman working there was very knowledgeable in the pieces they had & we talked about a lovely ring from the late 1800s, with the shape of a flower basket
Pricing seemed to be better than other shops we saw & I really liked how he encouraged pictures of me wearing the item so I could think about it — some places will not allow pics
If you are seeking unique antique pieces that are set at a nice price, you will easily find something at this lovely small shop
