JEWELRY
INSPIRATION
The Enguerrand bracelet evokes, with intensity and reverence, the glorious age of knights, crusades, and fortified castles—an era where honor, courage, and faith shaped destinies. This piece stands as a tribute to medieval craftsmanship and to the chivalric soul of those centuries steeped in legend.
The name Enguerrand, of Germanic origin, carries the power of a distant past. Derived from engil, meaning "angel," and hramm or rand, meaning "protection" or "shield," it conjures the image of a warrior angel—protector of the realm and bearer of noble values. Worn by lords and crusaders of the Middle Ages, this name lends the bracelet an aura of loyalty, valor, and timeless legacy.
At the center of the bracelet lies a rectangular silver plaque, finely engraved with a motif inspired by medieval illuminated manuscripts: stylized crosses entwined with vegetal arabesques, forming a harmonious composition reminiscent of cloister capitals, cathedral stained glass, or embroidered battle standards. Each detail pays homage to the intricate beauty of Gothic and Romanesque metalwork and to the sacred art of the Middle Ages.
To enhance its artisanal and authentic character, the plaque is pierced on both sides to accommodate a handwoven macramé cord. This ancient technique, found in many cultures and already present in some medieval European textiles, gives the piece both strength and flexibility. It brings a raw, almost warrior-like aesthetic that perfectly complements the spirit of the bracelet.
Wearing the Enguerrand bracelet is a way to claim a deep connection with the medieval heritage—an era where the chivalric ideal was intimately tied to art, devotion, and the quest for transcendence. It is a piece that fuses the timeless elegance of silver with the authentic texture of handmade braiding, where rusticity meets refinement.
Ultimately, it is a statement of unique style—bold, meaningful, and rooted in history. Like a talisman forged in the breath of time, the Enguerrand bracelet carries the memory of a noble past and projects it into the present.
