\nOur story\n<\/p>\n

It all started
\nby a message
\nin Morse code.<\/h1>\n

\nTen years later, three brands, a workshop in the Doubs region and 600 points of sale. Here's how.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

The story<\/p>\n

What I wanted to do<\/h2>\n
\n

In 2015, I envisioned a piece of jewelry that wouldn't just be pretty. I wanted it to say something. An intimate word, coded in Morse code, that you wear for yourself or give to someone who matters.<\/p>\n

The first shop understood the idea immediately. That day, I realized that the intention behind the object could matter as much as the object itself.<\/p>\n

In 2016, I opened our workshop in Morteau, in the Doubs region. Since then, each piece has been assembled by hand, with the same care as on the first day.<\/p>\n

Then the path broadened: Le Bon March\u00e9 in 2018, Tartine et Chocolat in 2019, the French Football Federation for Euro 2021, Bocage in 2022. Encounters that confirmed our high standards without ever changing our way of doing things.<\/p>\n

In 2024, Ol\u00e9-Ol\u00e9 joined the adventure with its graphic fans. In 2026, I took over Le Sou Fran\u00e7ais, created by Kilian, to give real French coins a new lease on life.<\/p>\n

Today, the LMD Group comprises three brands, a workshop, and a team. But the core remains the same: the trust of the boutiques that choose our creations and introduce them to their customers. This portal was designed for them.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
