Myrtille Beck Paris

The designer for this fine jewelry shop—offering romantic, vintage-inspired pieces—used to work in haute couture before switching over to jewelry, and that pedigree shows. Her pieces are more expensive, most incorporating precious stones, and meant to look like family heirlooms. Many of my friends have found their engagement rings here! You can enter the shop without an appointment, but I highly recommend making one if you have a precise idea of what you’re looking for—especially if the gems required are rare.
