10 Cool Jewelry Discoveries From Maison & Objet Paris 2016



The 3,000-exhibitor fair isn’t just a home-design destination; it’s also a great place to source jewelry

With some 3,000 exhibitors spanning seven halls in categories ranging from furniture and fabrics to lighting and floor covering, Maison & Objet Paris is the go-to destination for fashion and design retailers. It’s also a fantastic place to source jewelry (as you’ll see below!). Though I spent an afternoon at the fair, which ran Jan. 22–26 at Paris Nord Villepinte, I barely scratched the surface; I could have spent days admiring the gorgeous, impeccably curated booths—many of which were set up as their own mini–concept stores. Seriously, if you’re looking for display inspiration, Maison & Objet is the place to go! The next M&O Paris runs Sept. 2–6. But if you can’t make it across the pond, fret not: You can visit a more intimate version of the fair in Miami May 10–13. Bon voyage!
