Mother-of-pearl and ebony marquetry, a story of transmission, and ten pieces made to order: TEMYRIS unveils a creation intimately linked to the House's origins.
There are family stories we wish to keep close. TEMYRIS's story begins with a minaudière designed by Henry for his wife Lucienne, bringing together her beauty essentials in a single case. Passed down to their granddaughter Aurore Vast, it inspired the birth of our House, founded with Paul Teyssèdre.
With L'Héritière, this bond between generations takes on a new expression. A beauty minaudière where memory continues in the material, the gesture, and today's rituals.
Mother-of-pearl and ebony, a dialogue of light
The iridescent reflections of natural shell mother-of-pearl meet the depth of ebony wood. As it moves, light animates the design and reveals its nuances. Each piece thus has its own expression.
This contrast evokes the elegance of Art Deco and the freedom of the Roaring Twenties. It recalls a time when personal accessories accompanied new ways of living, going out, and asserting one's style.
Marquetry revealed in the details
Behind this composition, every fragment requires special attention. Choosing the shades, directing the reflections, cutting the mother-of-pearl, fitting the wood: the marquetry is built piece by piece, with precision in the joints.
Assembly and polishing then reveal the balance of the design. On the scale of a luxury minaudière, the finesse of each joint contributes to the beauty of the whole. L'Héritière invites you to look closely, to take the time to discover what the artisan's hand has patiently composed.
A legacy to carry with you
True to Henry's intuition, L'Héritière accompanies the intimate gestures of beauty. Its built-in mirror, lipstick, powder compact, and perfume atomizer compose a 3-in-1 beauty case, with components plated in 24-karat gold.
Refillable and interchangeable, the essentials are renewed while the minaudière remains. A way to bring its legacy to life every day, with a touch-up of makeup or a rediscovered fragrance.
Ten pieces to write the next chapter
L'Héritière will be made exclusively to order, in a limited edition of ten pieces. Each order will give rise to a dedicated piece, at the pace of artisanal work.
Chosen for oneself or given as a meaningful luxury gift, it opens a new page in the history of TEMYRIS. A page that each person can make their own, before, perhaps, passing it on in turn.
