Sant Joieria
A family-run jewellery store located in the heart of Barcelona’s trendy El Born neighbourhood, Sant Joieria has been on the go since the 1930s. At the time, founder Ramon Sant’s designs stood out for their innovative style: simpler, purer than the most popular pieces of the time. These days the family have retained their taste for the contemporary, offering unique designs in silver, gold and semi-precious and precious stones.

Coolook
This Spanish brand became an overnight sensation when socialite Isabel Preysler – mother of singer Enrique Iglesias – was featured on the front cover of ¡Hola!

Après-Ski
Not all jewellery has to be made of gold and silver. If you’re a fan of big, bold costume jewellery then Après Ski is where you need to head.

Even the packaging at Après Ski is adorable: a matchbox inspired box designed by various artists.

Alongside her own designs, Chez Paulette also sells jewellery by artisan brands such as Ripisylvia (from Toulouse), Le Voyage des Bulles (Montpellier) and Fosseth (Paris).
