The Maison Baenteli
André Baenteli opened his first studio in Biel, Switzerland in 1968, quickly becoming a respected member in the world of high-end design, restoration and creation of luxury jewelry and Swiss watches.
In 1987, Andre’s son, Thierry Baenteli, presented his first collection at the prestigious Baselworld.
Baenteli now exhibits every year, continuing to gain recognition and esteem amongst the most prestigious Haute Joaillerie houses for the superior quality of its creations.
Jewelry - A passion
Nature is a constant source of inspiration for Thierry Baenteli. Through detailed hand-drawn sketches, the designer honors the silhouettes and hues of the natural world, yet is always in search of perfection.
To fabricate his designs, Baenteli combines only the most prestigious precious stones and materials, bringing an exclusive passion to each meticulously created item.
A Swiss Savoir-Faire
From the initial sketches to the final polishing and careful research of top-quality gems, Baenteli controls every stage of production. Each signature piece of jewelry is certified Swiss-made and duly CMP stamped.
While the initial stages of Baenteli designs are crafted by hand, the final ones are created with the best and latest jewelry manufacturing technology. They include 3D design and printing, CNC laser cutting, precision setting of precious stones and laser engraving.
All stages of jewelry production are carried out in the Baenteli workshop in Switzerland.
The Workshop
Since 1987, we have been designing and manufacturing jewelry collections in our workshop in La Neuveville, Switzerland.
This tranquil medieval town offers a unique and peaceful atmosphere that we believe to be instrumental to the production of haute joaillerie.
It is the location of our headquarters, but also the ideal setting for producing jewelry that combines great precision, skill and creativity.
