Magical and upcycled earrings: Kamakura Sun (Japanese cotton bead)

My earrings are a little piece of magic brought back to life right here in Montreal, Quebec.

At Atelier Saturne, nothing is left to chance: each pair of earrings is designed, assembled, and imbued with intention in my little studio in Montreal’s Plateau neighborhood.

This is my way of creating unique, meaningful jewelry.

Every piece of my jewelry incorporates upcycled elements.

All the beads I use are vintage, found in thrift stores here in Montreal or on trips I take specifically to inspire my creations.

To date, Atelier Saturne has taken me to several places to create unique collections: Salem, New Orleans, Serbia, Romania, Mexico, Peru, the south of France and Japan.

Each place directly influences the jewelry I create.

All the pearlescent beads used in my creations since June 2025 come from Japan. The chain segments on my earrings are leftover chain from my necklaces.

If you’re curious to see behind the scenes, videos will be available on my YouTube channel starting in May 2026.

And then there’s that little something extra:

Every Atelier Saturne earring is an invitation to reveal the magic within you.

What makes my earrings truly special:

A magical design.

Each pair has that little “je-ne-sais-quoi” that makes it unique.

Most of my earrings are made up of beads and charms, often with a slight asymmetry that gives them their character.

The charms come from various sources:

– They may be vintage and very often one of a kind

– They may come from deadstock (older collections or pieces with imperfections (always noted when this is the case)

– Sometimes there are also a few new charms, when I can’t find what I’m looking for or to meet a particular need. Feel free to write to me if you have any questions 🤍

If you don’t see a design in the online shop, it simply means it has sold. I never leave sold-out product listings online. (One-of-a-kind designs with vintage charms posted during drops often sell quickly and disappear right away.)

There are always flat-lay photos and photos of the pieces being worn to help you picture them.

If any are missing, it’s a mistake—please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Comfort for everyday wear

The earring posts are made of stainless steel (PVD Physical Vapor Deposition on stainless steel) for the gold-tone finish—a high-quality finish that stands the test of time and is worlds apart from gold plating, making them perfect even for sensitive ears.

No green marks, no surprises: just durable, beautiful earrings that last.

And yes, the gold-tone finish on the posts stays put, even if your skin is acidic. Tested and approved by over 1,000 happy customers 🤍

Unique pieces, mixed and assembled by hand in Montreal, right here in our beautiful Quebec.

I make every pair myself in my magical studio. The designs come straight from my imagination.

No two are exactly alike. And that’s what I love: knowing that each person leaves with a piece of jewelry that truly reflects who they are.
