Gas Bijoux

Gas Bijoux at Kiti: French jewellery with Riviera roots

Few jewellery brands have an origin story quite as charming as Gas Bijoux. In 1969, André Gas, an artist from Marseille, began selling handmade pieces on the beaches of Saint-Tropez, and the first shop followed soon after. More than fifty years on, the brand still designs and makes its jewellery under one roof, in a workshop in the hills above Marseille where artisans cut, assemble, polish and hand-enamel each piece.

We love it because it feels joyful. This is jewellery inspired by Mediterranean light, colour and a little bohemian freedom, and it brings a sense of holiday to the most ordinary Tuesday.

Gas Bijoux earrings

Gas Bijoux earrings are where the brand's personality shines brightest. The Cyclade earrings in our edit are a sculptural acetate design with an organic, softly rounded shape, light enough to wear all day and distinctive enough to carry an outfit on their own. They are a lovely introduction to the brand if you usually play it safe with studs or small hoops. Browse more styles in our earrings collection.

Statement earrings, the easy way

Statement earrings can feel intimidating, but the trick is balance. Let one bold pair do the talking and keep everything else simple: hair tucked back, a plain neckline and minimal necklaces. A sculptural earring looks wonderful with a crew-neck knit from our knitwear collection, a crisp shirt, or a slip dress for evenings.

Gas Bijoux bracelets

Gas Bijoux has been making bracelets since its earliest days, and stones and talismanic details are a recurring theme. The Totem Stones bracelet brings together colourful stones in an easy, wearable piece that layers beautifully with a watch or a simple chain. Stack it with other pieces from our bracelets collection, or wear it on its own as a small flash of colour.

Made by hand in Marseille

Unlike many fashion jewellery labels, Gas Bijoux keeps design and production together in its own workshop. Around seventy artisans work on each collection by hand, which is why the pieces have a slightly individual, crafted feel. The brand uses materials including gold-plated and silver-plated metal, enamel, acetate and natural stones, and each product page lists exactly what your piece is made from.

Building a jewellery wardrobe

• Pair a Gas Bijoux bracelet with delicate gold pieces from Orelia for an easy everyday stack.
• Mix sculptural earrings with fine, recycled gold jewellery from Tilly Sveaas for contrast.
• Add a ring from our rings collection, keeping the metals consistent for a polished finish.

Caring for your Gas Bijoux jewellery

Plated jewellery lasts longest when it is kept away from water, perfume and lotions. Put your jewellery on last and take it off first, store each piece separately in a pouch or lined box, and wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after wearing. Acetate earrings can be wiped clean with a dry cloth and should be kept away from direct heat.
