ABOUT AVANT STUDIO:

AVANT STUDIO was founded in 2020 by designer and creative director Belle Maartensz. With a penchant for French sensibility, the name Avant, meaning, before, was a pillar on which Belle built the brand aesthetic with her designs inspired by and reminiscent of the past. AVANT STUDIO jewelry sets intention for the wearer, designing pieces that encapsulate one’s essence. Pieces that remind one of a precious time and can be gifted to someone special. At their core is a strong focus on environmental impact through sourcing of sustainable materials, recycling metals, repurposing packaging, and more.

Revival is an 80’s renaissance refined for the everyday. A rebirth of the playful spirit of fashion accouterments in the 1980’s. A modern take on the family heirloom, the collection offers nostalgic settings with cabochon-cut semi precious stones, designed to elevate the everyday. A proverbial journey through your Grandma’s jewelry box, finding bold jewel tones, charm bracelet iconography and mixed metals.
