The La Vie Parisienne collection originates from old Parisian workshops established over 200 years ago. Not a reproduction but a continuation of history, Catherine Popesco and her design team combine these actual, historical parts creating a timeless collection rooted in history and made in Santa Monica, CA.  Each piece is made of 14K gold plating or “old silver”, a unique French process of laying sterling silver or 14K gold over a copper or brass base.  Pieces are made from original molds and many incorporate Swarovski Crystals for a luxe look you will love.
