PAMPAYA THE SIGNATURE CHARM
SCULPTED MINI SEASHELL CHARM — THE ART OF DETAIL
YOUR INITIAL, NAME, DATE, OR MANTRA SCULPTED IN THE SEA FOAM

L|CORIGINAL: A bespoke and personalized seashell piece to add to your jewelry
More than an accessory, PAMPAYA (delicate charm) is a seashell micro-sculpture, shaped and hand-glazed in my atelier. For the EMPREINTE collection, I select each fragment for its texture and nuances. I only keep the prismatic layer — the purest and most resistant — which I sculpt to reveal your secret, your message, or your identity.
Your letter or theirs, sculpted in the sea foam. An absolute singularity.
Love and the unbreakable bond.
Micro-sculptures that define your universe: Heart, Star, Surf.
Your name, your word of love, your date, or even your phrase frozen in time.

SCULPTING INTIMACY
#SAYNOMORE
Your story is unlike any other.
That is why I sculpt each letter, each number, and each symbol one by one, directly into the tiny seashell fragments I gather on the beach.
In my universe, no rigid jewelry constrains your body. My creations are flexible, for a soft and gentle wear that respects every one of your curves. Your charms are independent and free. They slide, roll, and live to the rhythm of your movements.
MAKE YOUR JEWELRY UNIQUE
leave your mark
Size, Style, and Ethics: Forget standardized letters laser-cut from the white mother-of-pearl of river mussels, farmed in ponds in Asia. Here, the Ocean delivers its secret, and you sculpt yours through its wild nature. It is the Ocean that decides the curve of your seashell and creates it, on the Atlantic Coast, in France. It is the choice to wear a piece of the wild close to you.
Irregular & Organic: Thanks to hand micro-sculpting, no charm is identical. Your "M", "J", "A", or "E" will resemble no other, neither in shape nor in nuances. Be certain that your charm is strictly unique: it exists as a single piece. It cannot be replicated, neither by me nor by any process. It is an original, hand-sculpted artwork.
Oceanic Glaze: The sculpted seashell fragment is then protected and enhanced by my Oceanic Glaze, which reinforces its strength and makes it smooth and soft. It gives it a shine as brilliant as if you had just found it on the beach, still wet from the waves.
SCULPTED FINISH
Create your mark: Personalize the shape you desire. Your charm comes with its open jump ring in 14k Gold Filled or 925 Silver. Your PAMPAYA, hand-sculpted and protected by its Oceanic Glaze, thus easily attaches to all your jewelry (chains, bracelets, rings, or hoops).
The creator's advice
I AM OFTEN ASKED:
1 | How many charms should I put on a bracelet, a ring, a necklace, or hoop earrings?
To know the ideal number, understand that it will depend first and foremost on your style. We will therefore talk about aesthetics and comfort before I give you a few examples. For optimal comfort, my charms are free-moving on the jewelry: their 14k Gold Filled or 925 Silver ring allows them to move with complete fluidity.
This guarantees you can stack them without any discomfort, with a very pleasant wear since the charms are very thin (less than 1 mm) and are not fixed. They will therefore not get stuck under your wrist or between your fingers, and will adapt to your movements without ever hindering them.
Nevertheless, if you prefer them to have a fixed place, you can open the jump ring to attach them to a specific spot on your jewelry. This allows you to choose the exact placement of your PAMPAYA or the ideal spacing between your PAMPAYAS.
2 | Now let's talk aesthetics: how many charms should you wear for the effect to be truly exquisite?
From 1 to 5: Your initial or theirs, a totem (my epic surfboard, a heart, a star) or your favorite number: the effect is there, resolutely chic. You won't be able to go without them. This allows you to write a short name, to wear the symbol of your identity or your love, while keeping the minimalist spirit of a refined style.
From 6 to 10: You can compose an important date, celebrate a birth, a meeting, or display your names or those of your children. A new way to leave your mark on time for an unforgettable gift.
Up to 20: Your mantra, your favorite phrase, your declaration of love, long names... everything is allowed. It is the ultimate gift to wear close to you or to give. Simply unmatched. Whatever your desire, PAMPAYA, the hand-shaped charm in a seashell fragment, is incredibly original.
3 | What are the different ways to wear charms? They bring to your jewelry a poetry that blends softness and the wild, totally original. As an example:
SOLO: On a delicate chain, a bracelet, or a ring, for a minimalist style. Add your secret, sculpted in a seashell, to that of the Ocean.
DUO: Add your initials to a bracelet, a necklace, or even a ring as a discreet and personal reminder of your feelings. Create the spark.
STACKING: Put your children's initials with your own, or that of your love, on the same piece of jewelry and accompany them with a totem to sign your message. To create an identity that makes you feel unique, truly apart, and for a confident look, wear several charm models: your initials associated with totems or your birth date.
AS A TWIST worthy of the L|C charm: Single earrings have this quirky, subversive side that appeals to bold individuals. I guarantee the pleasure you will experience matching them to your outfits: a must-try if you are not yet a fan!
Think of the service to submit your idea to me if you desire a special charm. I am always delighted to discover your own interpretation of the hand-sculpted PAMPAYA.

THE "HAUTE MAIN" CRAFTSMANSHIP
