The authentic Forma Prima
At Forma Prima, each piece of jewelry is unique, handcrafted in our workshop in Eure-et-Loir. We believe that authenticity is the true value of a piece of jewelry: the time spent crafting, the nobility of the materials, and the story etched into each fragment.
Wearing a Forma Prima jewel means wearing a creation that has its own identity, a certificate, a hallmark, and a respectful raw material.
Certificate of Authenticity
Each piece of jewelry comes with an authenticity card sent with the order.
It attests to its origin, to the fact that it was designed and shaped by hand in our workshop, and mentions:
the unique number of the piece (limited edition or unique piece),
the metals and stones used,
the master's mark and the legal mark.
This is tangible proof that your jewelry is not just an accessory, but a work of craftsmanship, with clear traceability.
The master's mark and the 925 mark
All our silver or gold jewelry is marked with a hallmark, a true signature of authenticity and conformity:
The master's mark: specific to the artisan Bianca Balea, it certifies that the piece was created and validated by the artisan.
The 925 hallmark: affixed to sterling silver, guaranteeing its purity (except on jewelry too fine to be marked).
These hallmarks are true seals of trust, ensuring that each piece of jewelry meets the standards of French jewelry.
Noble and responsible materials
We only work with materials selected for their beauty and durability:
Recycled silver: chosen to minimize environmental impact.
9K gold: refined, solid and timeless.
Natural stones: garnet, emerald, quartz… each chosen for its unique hues and reflections.
Zirconiums: ethical and sparkling alternatives to diamonds.
Each material tells a story and is transformed, under the hand of the craftsman, into a fragment to wear.
