Why it belongs in ORBIS
Bangle Up designs colourful jewellery in Paris, using bangles as the starting point for a range of patterned pieces. Brass and zamak appear in its gold-finished designs coloured with lacquer or enamel. The collection is sold online, making it possible to compare individual pieces or combinations without treating the company's Paris office as a shop.
Bangle Up was founded at the end of 2014, near the Canal Saint-Martin in Paris, by Danielle, who launched the label after 15 years building the Princesse Tam Tam lingerie brand. The brand's signature piece is the bangle bracelet. Bangle Up's jewelry is worked in lacquer and enamel, enhanced with fine-gold detailing, combining Parisian design and finishing with production through partners in Asia.
