Somewhat bohemian, somewhat elf-like
FloT.Bjewellery art is, to say the least, rather
unique. The maker’s label offers affordable
fashion treasures which are borne from their
creator’s numerous inspirations and searches.
FloT.B jewellery has a fresh, feminine
and original look. Embellished with
mother-of-pearl, crystalline blues, silver plaint
rivers and bright pearls, the new collection’s
treasures have it all to seduce women with their
unique elegance.
Florence T. Bourgineau has
always had a passion for the arts, sculpture,
drawing, painting and mosaic "To create is my
central drive, my energy."
The journey of an
exhilarated woman of French descent, guided solely
by her intuition:
The story of Florence T.
Bourgineau’s passion for pearls dates back to
that summer vacation on the French Riviera several
years ago, when, be it by chance or by destiny,
she came across a stand of pearls by the beach. At
the sight of the incredible display of colours,
she remained entranced. Since that day when her
passion for jewellery was born, her creations have
become appreciated to such an extent that she has
decided to make it her main professional activity.
Having now been settled in
Canada for seven years, she works to achieve her
own place in the Montréal jewellery market by
developing her own exclusive label FloT.B, hoping
to make it a reference in the business. The artist
is endowed with an enviable amount of experience
in the French fashion industry. As well as having
been enrolled in the Montréal jewellery school
for two years, the designer has succeeded in
forging a very European, unique style. She puts
special importance on emphasizing the mystic side
of things.
One of the most avant-gardiste creators,
her sources of inspiration are drawn from various
trendy spots. Her label reflects exactly who she
is. Always in tune with her intuitions, Florence
is greatly concerned with details, presentation,
and her creations denote an ever-resisting French
meticulousness.
Her dreams? The creator
certainly intends to make the most out of the
effervescence of Montréal and the extraordinary
opportunities it offers, in order to develop her
beloved label. She hopes to succeed in extending
her network and export her talent to all
continents.
