The craftsman in residence - Alexandre Iffrich, jeweler in Etoy

From Tuesday August 18 to Sunday August 23, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Arcades Métiers d’art Switzerland, Platform 10 in Lausanne

Alexandre Iffrich, a great music lover, never works in silence: jazz, blues and rock punctuate his work and are all sources of inspiration to give his jewelry a unique material and shape. His creations are sometimes close to sculpture by the material effects he gives them by brushing, pricking or hammering them. He develops his pieces by hand and gives them a soul.

“Over time, you manage to master the metal and bring it where you want. »

From Tuesday August 18 to Sunday August 23, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Alexandre Iffrich, jeweler in Etoy, will present all the steps (from wax to metal) necessary for the realization of the models for the creation of his jewels. He will also work on polishing the different metals and alloys used in jewelry. And will present to you a collection of semi-precious stones as well as its current and completed jewelry.
