The Delphis collection draws its inspiration from the founding myth of Marseille: Gyptis, a Celtic princess, chooses her future husband on the day of her wedding. Her choice falls upon Protis, a Phocean navigator. From this gesture, a city is born, shaped from its very origin by a vision of openness and exchange.
Each creation evokes an aspect of this legendary union. Twisted forms entwine worlds and connect opposites. The dolphin, a symbol of protection for sailors in Antiquity, watches over the wearer. To wear a Delphis creation is to keep close to the heart a precious talisman of love and protection.
