Sustainable jewellery
Jack de Boucheron Ultime is a capsule collection that combines the Jack de Boucheron design and Cofalit, a material made by recycling an industrial byproduct. This is done by applying a unique vitrification process to a specific type of industrial waste; Cofalit reaches the end of the line in terms of recycling and is considered an “unrecyclable” material. Inert and therefore harmless, this material is conventionally used as a filling material for highway embankments. Boucheron saw its potential and fashioned this material into jewellery. Through this, the Maison reasserts its commitments to sustainable development expressed in its first social and environmental impact report Precious For The Future.

The muse designed her collection and showed it to celebrate the woman wearing it, to embrace her confidence and beauty.
