Clemcrea jewels are produced from old watches dating of the years 1900-1960. A true jewel from the distance, but as you come closer arouses the curious mind ! An elegant and precious vintage, issued from a long research process…
Clement Vauchel came out to jewelry standards as a self-trained specialist after a career of graphic design in Paris.
Enthousiast for semi-precious stones since his childhood, he makes use of them as technical support in which he incorporates all kind of secondhand elements, such as leathers, tree barks, or ancient small objects as compasses or medals… Then, one day, works of watches are added to these sets of jewels… An idea was born… After having sold its creations among exhibition crafts shows, he leaves the capital and opens its private gallery in Sarlat, the medieval “gem city” of the Périgord Noir.
Since then, he uses to design jewels as a pair with his wife, while developing together his second activity of watercolourist painter.
