90 years of passionate craftsmanship
The Péclard family has been producing unique pieces of jewellery in Zurich's old town for 90 years. Unique pieces with a high standard of craftsmanship and artistry. Yves Péclard is the third generation to run the jewellery business. For him, jewellery is not a luxury: "Rather, it is a way of telling a story, of capturing emotions. Our jewellery is a companion for life."
Because no two lives are the same, he and his team have specialised in forging unique pieces. "Mementos for the birth of a child, a signet ring for a confirmation, a necklace for a wedding anniversary and so on. Everything that leaves the Péclard atelier is
exclusive, but it doesn't have to be expensive."
In the hands of the goldsmiths, a precious pendant can be created from a shell found at the beach. "We have deliberately not become a jewellery label, but have remained an exclusive workshop."
A high-end manufactory where love and appreciation for the craft take centre stage. Sustainability is also part of this philosophy. That is why the six goldsmiths and two apprentices only work with certified raw materials. They also extend the life of beloved heirlooms and repair necklaces or grandmother's silver coffee pot.
Every piece sold in the boutique is created in the workshop above. "Nothing has changed since 1933. After my grandfather opened the shop on Peterhofstatt in 1931, he moved here to Strehlgasse 33 after two years. I still climb the same steep stairs every day as he did," says Yves Péclard. A tradition that continues.
His daughter Billie May, who is also a goldsmith, is also part of the family business. With our business, we are not only preserving a family tradition, but above all an exclusive craft that has become rare worldwide.
