Drawing inspiration from her love of Paris and world travel, Niarchos brings each country’s flag to life using vibrant enamel and 18-karat gold.
This patriotic array is complemented by a French-themed charm bracelet that pays homage to the Olympic host city. The bracelet features a series of dazzling motifs synonymous with Paris: a gold croissant charm dusted in diamonds, a glass of red wine, a vintage Metropolitan sign, the French cockade, a champagne bottle, and an artist’s palette.
Eugenie founded Venyx in 2013, aiming to create a brand that embodies freedom, time travel, and unbridled imagination. “I really wanted to build a brand that represents a universe, a world of its own. I called it Venyx World,” she explains. “Venyx is a blend of Venus – the planet – and onyx – the stone. The name sounds mysterious and incites curiosity. This imaginary planet or world is the backdrop of my creations and designs.”
Eugenie’s designs blend futuristic and retro aesthetics, a reflection of her varied background. Her experience includes collaborations with Repossi and Vanessa Seward, studying fine jewelry design and diamonds at the Gemological Institute of America, and working at Christie’s fine jewelry department in New York. Her collections draw inspiration from diverse sources, such as Man Ray’s surrealism, cosmic phenomena, Greek mythology, and reptile pelts, often featuring bold and colorful gems like opals, rainbow sapphires, malachite, and emeralds.
The Paris-inspired Charms collection, available directly from Venyx and at the illustrious La Galerie du Ritz, serves as a precious memento of the 2024 Olympics. These charms, immortalized in lustrous gold, diamonds, and joyful colored gems, offer a unique and timeless way to celebrate the global event.
