J'ai contacté la bijouterie Bonnot car je souhaitais un saphir Padparadscha, qui est assez rare. Toute la transaction a été faite à distance et s'est très bien passée. Ils sont très professionnels, à l'écoute et très sympathiques. J'ai reçu ma bague et elle correspond tout à fait à ma demande. Merci beaucoup 😋

Excellente expérience avec Bastien pour la conception de notre bague de fiançailles sur mesure. Il a été disponible, les échanges ont été fluides et efficaces. La conception de la bague a été rapide, elle est magnifique et correspond exactement à ce que nous voulions. Nous recommandons fortement Bonnot pour son expertise, mais aussi son sens de l'écoute.

Bastien est à la fois très sympathique et très professionnel. J'ai été très bien reçue, le contact et la communication sont faciles. J'ai fait transformer une marguerite en bague plus moderne et je suis ravie du résultat.

Exceptional precious stones at fair and transparent prices
Our unique gemstones reflect the purity and elegance of nature
Exclusively by renowned independent laboratories
Exceptional sourcing
At Bonnot Paris, every stone is selected for its rarity, clarity and ethical provenance, ensuring full traceability, exceptional quality and fair pricing.
Every creation begins with a personal consultation — in Paris, in Angers, or by video call — to understand your wishes, your story and your budget.
Our experts guide you through the selection of stones and the development of your jewellery design.
Our designers then produce several sketches so you can visualise the piece.
Once the stones and design have been approved, your creation is carefully brought to life to the highest standards of excellence at Maison Bonnot Paris.
Yes, all our stones are certified by renowned laboratories such as Bellerophon, ICA GemLab, London Gem Lab, and others, guaranteeing their authenticity and exceptional quality.
The violet of a sapphire can take on an infinite range of hues, depending on its composition and origin:
At Bonnot Paris, we favour saturated, luminous violet sapphires — often with a subtle blue undertone — for their balance and extraordinary brilliance.
These are rare stones, selected one by one, removed from the market the moment they are discovered.
The most sought-after violet sapphires come primarily from Sri Lanka and Madagascar.
These sources produce stones with beautifully balanced colour and an incomparable natural brilliance.
Unheated violet sapphires are exceptionally rare — far rarer than diamond.
Their colour is entirely natural, making them highly coveted by collectors and the finest jewellers.
The violet sapphire is a stone of soul and intuition.
It symbolises creativity, wisdom and inner transformation.
In an engagement ring, it expresses a love that is profound, inspiring and sincere — a union of minds as much as of hearts.
Delivery is arranged either by hand in Paris or via a specialist courier, ensuring your piece reaches you in a manner that is secure, insured and entirely reliable.
Lead times vary according to the complexity of the piece, but you should generally allow between 4 and 8 weeks from final design approval.
Thanks to our offices in India, Sri Lanka and Bangkok, close to the markets and the mines, we take the time needed to select the ideal stone, one that is perfectly aligned with your expectations.
