CEO’s message

Five years ago, when I was struggling to make a career as a diamond cutter, the chance to make a quick profit by doing something not completely above board presented itself.

It would have been easy to compromise my integrity. But I knew that hard work and honesty would help me succeed. This has been the foundation of Carte Blanche, and what a journey it has been since!

In 2020, we celebrate the fifth anniversary of the company and look back at all those years.

Carte Blanche has experienced many ups and downs, but every time we came out safe and unscathed, we even grew stronger, being well-prepared for opportunities. I strongly believe our persistent, innovative spirit will continue to steer us towards a bright future.

Multifacet

In 2020, we redefined and reinvented our design strategy: we no longer want to follow fast trends and fashions. To test this approach, we introduced

a new sideline collection with gender-neutral ‘non-lasting’ design, simple natural forms, and flawless execution.

Tonight, at the 2028 New Year’s party, in the office—jewels from the Multifacet collection will always be a good fit.

BAROQUE PEARLS: IRREGULAR AND HARMONIOUS

The pearl trend is here to stay and we are beyond happy with it, launching the Irregular sideline collection. Dressed up or down, Baroque pearls are just perfect. The collection includes:

Pearl-beaded chokers

Combinations of classic round pearls and more one-of-a-kind Baroque pearls.

Rings with monograms

Personal jewelry is the biggest trend at the moment. People have moved away from 'special occasion' pieces and are purchasing pieces that are more personal.

Perfect earrings

Earrings are now a mainstay in every Zoom meeting—it’s the opportunity to brighten up one's day while stuck at home working.
