Where it all began one night of Sept. 1985 in St Barth, F.W.I.
DENIZEN® bracelet was born French in the luxury resort island of St. Barth. An American surgeon, passionate about sailing had a soft spot for this speck in the Caribbean Sea. One night in fall of 1985, he was inspired by the apparition of planet Saturn in his new telescope that adorned his beach house. Mesmerized by the dazzling ring contrasting with the absolutely veiled surface, he had a revelation. The vision sparked more his imagination than it offered substance for his eyes to gaze. And so came about the Bracelet of St Barth, later named DENIZEN. He had been cogitating for some time about the idea to create a keepsake on par with the prestige of the island as a world class destination for millionaires and Hollywood A-lister visitors.
A highly respected Paris-based goldsmith was commissioned to manufacture the prototype and the first series of the initial orders placed by the finest french jewelers on island, many are still in existence, remain our loyal retailers to this day. The protocol called for the replication of the precept observed on Saturn. An ''invisible" land mass of St Barth epitomized by the cutout of an abstract map in a stunning yet minimalist round charm to portray the planet ring. The initial production was in 18kt gold to befit the fortunate few who vacationed on island.
The idea to visualize mentally their own memories turned out to be overly astute. The precious metal echoed the epitome of luxury. The adjustable cord made of natural fiber of bamboo staples mirrored a bohemian exercise of french fashion reflecting the laid back demeanor of '' un je ne sais quoi" typical St Barth and St Tropez vacation style.
The splendid design was on point emblematic of the destination conveying an exclusive Sense of Place unanimously everyone identified with with a remarkable thrill, which led to an instantaneous success still seen with new retailers in new destinations like yours. Today DENIZEN is sold in nearly 150 countries and territories. You can find them locally at airport retailers like Santo in Milan,Italy and Sanjay in Mumbai airport, India. The rest is history.
And so was born the DENIZEN® Bracelet inspirited by the very same precept.
2. DESCRIBING THE DENIZEN ® BRACELET
Our signature concept was at inception a charm made exclusively in 18kt (for St Barth) and 14kt gold (for Ibiza) and other luxury markets / destinations. It was mounted on an adjustable cord (still most popular), leather or chain bracelet in which we cut out the discernible map of some specific destination or its related symbol where it is retailed.
More accessories were introduced subsequently to include necklaces, pendants, earrings, cuff links, brooches, key rings, necktie clips etc... We diversified our metal line to include sterling silver, stainless steel, even in limited series ebony charms filled with 24kt gold or lesser content.
Two factors help reinforce the cognizance of a location:
1. Retailers are allowed to market the design of their destination only. (Though we make exception to airport hub stores and cruise/ferry lines.
2. We devised an astute display to showcase but mostly to replicates the design of each charm in an over sized metallic disc in which we explicitly engrave the name of the location and perform the cutout of its map, thus it is custom made with each order received.
Different retail venues are given different displays. More on the subject in this weblink: displays
