Our ambassadors are precious to us

We have designed a format that gives voice to women, who inspire us with their professional careers, their uniqueness, their strength. We question them about their relationship to success and the jewelry that accompanies them daily, about their sentimental value and what they were able to celebrate as important stages of their life. From customers, they have become real Douze ambassadors. Zoom in on these personalities who are dear and precious to us!

We reveal the interview with Camille Witt. Formerly a graphic designer and photographer, Camille is now an illustrator and content creator (via her Instagram account wiwoos ). She highlights her watercolor illustrations, including emblematic places in Paris, on her dedicated account, @camillewitt_illustration . A lifelong Parisian, she is also a fan of knitting which she rediscovered during periods of confinement. Her style is super colorful, retro, she really likes colored stones!
