OUR STORY
Modèle was born from a deep-rooted love for gemstones and an appreciation for what they hold. For our founder, Bao, growing up in Burma meant being surrounded by some of the world’s most extraordinary natural gems. She saw each stone not just as a thing of beauty, but as something personal, a quiet keeper of memory, meaning and emotion.
With a background in architecture and an eye for form and detail, Bao approaches jewellery the way she sees the world : with care, balance and intention.
Her vision is simple. To create pieces that are refined, deeply personal and made to be lived in.
At the heart of Modèle is a dedication to authenticity.
Every Burmese gemstone is handpicked through trusted family connections, selected for its natural colour, quality and character. Not perfection but personality. From sourcing to setting, each detail is carefully considered and crafted to last. Quietly elegant, never overdone.
For Bao, jewellery isn’t just something you wear, it’s part of who you are. A reflection of your journey, your style, your story, worn close day after day, season after season.
Welcome to Modèle, where every gem begins with intention and ends with meaning.
