Rosette Cathédrale St-Maurice d'Angers

Saint-Maurice d'Angers Cathedral Rose Window Medal in natural jewellery-grade mother-of-pearl, rimmed in 18-karat 750/1000 gold.

The rose of Saint-Maurice d'Angers, in jewellery-grade mother-of-pearl

Saint-Maurice cathedral in Angers, whose domed vaults gave their name to the Gothic "Plantagenet" style, has a rose with twelve trefoil petals arranged around a central heart, ringed by a crown of quatrefoils. Our sculptor transposed this design into mother-of-pearl, whose translucency renders the light of stained glass; the gold rim closes the rose. An Angers rose window medal, for the people of Anjou and lovers of Plantagenet Gothic.

The know-how of Mayaud rose windows

Manufacture Mayaud is the only workshop in the world to make cathedral rose windows in jewellery-grade mother-of-pearl. Each rose window takes many hours of work: the tracery is drawn from the rose itself, then carved and engraved in mother-of-pearl at the scale of a medal, without simplifying anything. It is a complex know-how, developed in our Paris workshop, of which we are very proud, and which we inaugurated with the Notre-Dame de Paris rose window, the first ever offered in mother-of-pearl and 750/1000 gold. Registered design filed with the INPI, 100% made in France.
