ANICET

" In our business, we talk a lot about bonds. And they're not just material: that's something I try to convey through my Anicet brand. " Elia Pradel has always had a passion for jewelry.
In Guadeloupe, where she was born and raised in the 90s, jewelry is not an accessory. Worn in accumulation, they often symbolize memory, heritage and transmission. Her background in political science and her experience in technological and entrepreneurial innovation did not immediately lead her to this activity. But she knew that one day she would make her dream come true, and self-taught with a number of Parisian jewelers.
She felt ready in 2020 and launched Anicet... two weeks before the lockdown. Whatever the context, she keeps moving forward. Her collections are made from dead stocks from luxury houses, from salvaged antique pieces, often disassembled, broken, cut up and then reassembled. " These are little bits of stories that, when rearranged, form a new narrative. Although today Elia combines traditional techniques with 3D to complete her work of " reinvention ", she still defends the same values, whether in her collections sold on her eshop, in her studio and at retailers, or through exceptional projects, one-off pieces, artistic installations...

At a time when Anicet is in full swing, it seemed obvious to her to apply for the Grands Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris to validate her approach. Winner in the " Accessoires Bijoux" category, she can now pursue her projects with confidence and look forward to opening a workshop-showroom in January 2026.
