The Story

A flower reduced to its line

The ring that bears the flower's name offers a pared-back reading of it. Here there is no top and no stone: only the petals of the Gogane draw the line of the band. A sterling silver (925) ring, handmade in Saumur, in FR sizes 48 to 64, to wear alone or with others.

The flower

The fritillary, up close

In the damp meadows of the Loire Valley, the checkered fritillary blooms from late March to April: a nodding bell marked with a purple-and-white checkerboard, at the tip of a slender stem. In Anjou, it is called the Gogane.

For this ring, we kept what stays with you once you have seen the flower: the curve of its petals, more than its pattern.

The line

The petals make the ring

On La Gogane, there is no motif laid on a band: the petals themselves form the line of the ring, with no other ornament. The whole design lives in that curve.

The ring is made by hand in our Saumur workshop, in sterling silver (925), and offered in FR sizes 48 to 64 (approx. US 4½ to 10¾). It is made to order, in the size you choose.

To wear

Alone or together

Its simple line lets you wear La Gogane alone or pair it with other rings from the collection, such as Julie in silver. It slips between two bolder rings without competing with them, and it can stay on the hand from morning to evening.

Silver oxidizes naturally: a wipe with a chamois every two weeks restores its shine, and our workshop can provide a polish once a year.

Taking an ornament away often takes more work than adding one.
