The Chaine d'Ancre collection by Hermes

Hermès is first and foremost a saddler that has established itself as one of the greatest luxury houses.

The founder of the House, Thierry Hermès, opened his factory in 1837. The House focused for a long time on the equestrian field (saddles, harnesses, horse blankets and other riding articles), hence the brand logo which is represented by his emblematic horse-drawn carriage. The work of the house ends up diversifying even more until launching into jewelry.

The Chaîne d'ancre bracelet: a timeless and unbeatable piece from the House

Jewelery is today an essential sector of the House, and what has made the reputation of jewelery at Hermès is of course the Chaîne d'Ancre bracelet, considered timeless today.

There is a story to this bracelet that begins when Robert Dumas, son-in-law of Thierry Hermès' son, criss-crosses the Normandy coast with his vacation notebook on which he spent a lot of time drawing sketches. During one of his walks, Robert Dumas was captivated by the curves of the chain linking the boat to its anchor. He therefore drew this chain in his notebook and represented in it all the strength it embodies, the Anchor chain bracelet emerges that way. 

Robert Dumas wanted this jewel to be created in silver, a material that jewelers did not yet use at that time. He then appealed to the craftsman De Percin, who was the only one to agree to work the silver.

As soon as it was released, this cult jewel was a success and still is to this day, timeless and timeless, it travels through the years and makes everyone who wears this jewel travel.
