History

Eric Belmonte founded Histoire d'Or in 1986 to integrate jewelry sales into French shopping malls. This approach deviated from the established model of independent street-level boutiques. Through subsequent mergers and the formation of the Thom Group, the brand became a significant entity in the European market. Its role in fashion history is defined by the transition of fine jewelry into a mass-market commodity available in high-traffic commercial environments.
