€79.00Price
Want to turn your shells into jewelry? Already have 5 vacation shells?
 

Discover the Atelier L|C service and entrust me with the professional drilling of your personal treasures.
 

THE MANIFESTO
 

Here, my technical expertise is entirely at your disposal. Forget risky tutorials and tools that break your shells. I perform High-Precision drilling using diamond micro-drill bits to ensure total respect for your shells and eliminate risks, working just as effectively on micro-treasures under 1 centimeter as on very thick shells. It is the Shaper’s touch, securing the drilling of your returned vacation memories.
 

YOUR TREASURES (YOUR VACATION HERITAGE)
 

The shells you send me are unique. Whether they come from the Côte d'Argent, a beach on the other side of the world, or a family stroll in the Mediterranean or Brittany, they are not simple ornaments: they are your own pieces of eternity. By entrusting them to me, you ensure they are transformed into a Custom-Made personalized piece of jewelry, ready to be worn for a lifetime.
 

THE FEEL & THE LOOK
 

The Wear: Absolute freedom. The drilling is executed at the exact spot so that your shells remain perfectly balanced on their rings. They position themselves naturally and accompany you daily without ever letting you down.
 

The Look: Wild elegance. The contrast between the radiance of the rings' precious metal and the natural beauty of your shells creates a perfect harmony. A touch of the tamed Ocean, transformed to be mounted as a custom charm, ready to slide onto your favorite chains, hoops, or bracelets.
 

CONCIERGE & WARRANTY
 

Because your shells deserve eternity, the rings I fit onto your shell benefit from the support of Maison L|C. If your rings suffer any damage over the years, the workshop is here to replace them for you.
 

The metal: This service is dedicated to mounting on 925 Silver rings.

  • SAVOIR-FAIRE :

    CRAFTSMANSHIP: THE EPURE FINISH

    1 DRILLED SHELL

    The art of micro-countersinking:

    Entrusting your shell means entrusting a piece of your story. The EPURE Finish has been designed to fully respect the integrity of your find.

    Preserved authenticity:

    Dry to the touch and matte in appearance, your shell retains its natural beauty. I do not alter its shape, surface, or color.

    The technical expertise:

    Forget traditional methods that weaken the material (drill, heated needle, or hammer). In the workshop, I work with diamond micro-burs mounted on a flexible shaft rotary tool. This jewelry technique guarantees high-precision drilling (0.08-inch) without any micro-cracking, even on the smallest, thickest, or hardest treasures.

    Jewelry mounting:

    Your shell is then mounted "pearl-style" on a 925 Sterling Silver ring, the quality of which is carefully studied to guarantee a perfect hold over time.

  • THE STORY BEHIND THE SERVICE:

    OUR SHARED LOVE FOR SHELLS

    The First Step

    This service holds a special meaning. For years, I focused on my own creations, hand-picking and shaping my shells. But faced with your many requests, your vacation photos, and your messages asking "Linda, how can I turn my own treasure into jewelry?", I decided to take the plunge.

    The Designer's Secret?

    I designed this service as an extension of my own workshop. I don't just pierce: I bring the same exacting standards and sense of balance as I did for the very first piece of jewelry born here.

    From my imagination to yours.

    Behind every piercing lies my unique method. I have shared my know-how with you through my videos and articles, and today, I am opening up this service so that your memory, too, can become a stylish piece with no risk of breakage. It is a fragment of your story that I secure for you, so you can assemble your shells into jewelry like a pro.

  • SIZE & STYLE:

    SIZE & FORMAT ADVICE

    The 14k Gold jump ring attached to your shell is selected for its quality and durability. Its universal inside diameter allows you to easily slide your treasure onto most neck chains, link bracelets, or hoop earrings from your own collection.

    THE PERFECT MATCH (STYLING)

    How to wear it?

    • Solo: A chic, minimalist statement. Your shell becomes the focal point, suspended from a delicate chain to draw every eye to it.
    • Mix & Match: The ultimate "personal" piece of jewelry. It pairs beautifully when layered with other creations from the Atelier or your own favorite charms to tell your unique story and create your own 2:1:1 Custom look.
    • As a Duo: If you entrust me with two shells, they can be transformed into a unique pair of drops to slip onto your favorite hoop earrings.

  • MATERIALS - ORIGIN

    THE OCEAN'S IMPRINT

    Your Shell is the hero of this piece. It becomes the heart of a piece of jewelry of which you are the designer: it is your creation, congratulations!

    THE EXCELLENCE OF GOLD (14K Gold Filled)

    I chose 14-karat Gold Filled (585/1000) for its nobility and high quality. It contains 50 to 100 times more pure gold than classic "gold-plated" jewelry. The gold is mechanically heat-pressed, making it unalterable: it does not flake, does not rust, and offers the same hypoallergenic properties as solid gold.

    UP-CYCLING & WILD VALUE

    By choosing to mount your own find, you are practicing noble and responsible up-cycling. Unlike mother-of-pearl from forced farming in river basins (like the mussels whose white mother-of-pearl is so heavily industrialized), your shell is of wild origin. It is this authenticity, shaped by the Ocean, that gives it all its value.

  • SHIPPING & DELIVERY TIMES

    Shipping:

    Once your order is validated and paid for, you will receive the Atelier's address in a separate email.​

    ​

    Return:

    Include a self-addressed, pre-paid bubble mailer inside your shipment. Tracking is highly recommended (tracked delivery or signature required).

    ​

    Receipt:

    Within a maximum of 7 days depending on its destination, your treasure returns transformed, ready to be mounted.

  • WHAT IS THE 2/1/1 RULE FOR JEWELRY?

    This is my secret to showcasing your shells in all their majesty. For the perfect stacking (layering) effect, I recommend: 2 necklaces of different lengths (a sleek chain and your unique pendant), 1 Signature bracelet, and 1 minimalist ring.

    By isolating your treasures within the 925 Sterling Silver this way, you create a powerful focal point. It is the perfect balance for a personalized and resolutely iconic look.

  • 2-YEAR WARRANTY + LIFETIME CONCIERGERIE

    Every movement is a promise.

    Absolute Confidence (2-Year Warranty):

    I stand by the strength of my craft. The micro-drilling and the 14k Gold ring (parts and labor) are guaranteed for 2 years. The brilliance of the Gold itself is guaranteed for life.

    The L|C Conciergerie:

    Jewelry is alive; it travels with you. If your ring suffers an impact or if you wish for a refurbishment years down the road, the Atelier remains open to you upon estimate. I don't just offer a service; I ensure its continuity.

    French Expertise:

    No outsourcing. Your treasures are handled, drilled, and mounted by hand, solely by me, in my Ocean Shaper workshop. Every single piece is therefore certified "Crafted in France."
