FABRICE

At Ombre Claire, each men’s ring celebrates one of our beautiful encounters…⁠
Today, we invite you to meet Fabrice!⁠

Fabrice is a talented photographer, co-author with his sidekick Laurence Guilloud of the book Les Petites Routes . These two like to get lost in the middle of Parisian dead ends or on country roads... So, one day they arrived at the shop to do a report on Ombre Claire, then the years passed... One day our paths crossed again, and we decided to work together, because going part of the way with them, it must have been great! 

Fabrice observes others on a daily basis, he grasps the gestures, the know-how, the exchanges.  

And it is for all these reasons that we asked him to become the sponsor of the Fabrice ring!

 

He agreed to answer the famous sponsors' questionnaire:

In a few words, how did your story with Ombre Claire begin?

For a report. Almost 10 years ago, I opened the door of the store. My first thought is purely technical: not enough light, I will have to increase the ISO of my camera. It was a lovely moment, a lovely meeting.

 

Who are you?

This is a dizzying question. A freeze frame will make my answer easier. On October 10, 2023 at 8 a.m. on the TGV, I am a photographer-videographer, one foot in Paris and the other in Lyon, between two ages, often also between two doors. I like movement but not speed. The people but not the crowd. For the psychological aspect: consult an astrologer. Capricorn Taurus ascendant. And Breton. 

 

What was your first Ombre Claire piece of jewelry?

It's this one! 

 

What is your fondest travel memory?

Chad. I am 7 years old. I'm taking a plane for the first time. It's a DC10. I remember the airport in winter, a forest of seats on the plane. I am told that in a few hours everything will be very different. Until the last day, wherever I find myself, the smell of earth wet by summer rain will always be that of Africa. 

 

Where do you dream of taking your new Ombre Claire jewelry? 

I picture the scene. It’s a film so the scene is impeccably shot and acted. June sun at its zenith. Athletic and tanned body. Adventurer shorts. A boat in the Cyclades. From the surface, we see the light dancing on the sand, the algae, the rocks. I dive. The ring splits the waves. I open my eyes. The sun makes the metal shine. Everything is perfect.

 

What Ombre Claire jewelry would you like to give to someone important in your life?

10 rings for the hands of Laurence who is not afraid of excess.

 

Your ethics, your mood, your motto.

Right away!

 

 Thank you Fabrice and welcome to the Ombre Claire tribe!
