FABIAN BLASER
The goldsmith and gemologist has been the owner of his studio in Biel since 1999. He likes headwork and handwork, the sparkle of gemstones and the glow in the eyes of joyful customers. Fabian Blaser has won various design awards with his work.
From the idea to the finished piece of jewelry - made in Biel
Compared to the lifetime of gemstones, our studio in the middle of Biel's old town is very young. Here we advise you, hatch ideas, select metals and gemstones, and let you examine models. Sometimes we dry tears of joy at the handover.

CHRISTIAN D. LINK
Christian D. Link has always had an interest in the finer things in life, especially when created in past times by true craftsmanship. He was able to combine this affinity with his passion for antiques and art in his first Wunderkammer store in 2012.
With UHRZEIT he now specializes in the trade of the worlds finest watches from brands like Patek Philippe, Omega, IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Rolex, Cartier
UHRZEIT is aimed at watch lovers that have a taste for timeless quality and like to be enthralled by stories from the past. The UHRZEIT collection is carefully curated and handpicked by Christian and his small team. We are looking forward to meet you in Basel!
IRYNA KARPOVA
Karpova Iryna an architect by education, Iryna has championed the best artistic traditions and techniques of Carl Faberge while opening new horizons for their application, creating her unique style. An avid observer of nature, she explores new inspirations and transforms them to the different trends of her "Romantic Avantgarde”.
One emphasis of Iryna`s work is on amber, born out of the four elements, and carrying the positive energy of the sun. It combines with gold, diamonds an ebony into her featured collection, “Organic Jewellery”, a collection of individual pieces meticulously handcrafted by her own team of expert craftsmen.
LEYSER & Friends
The Leyser family has been in the gemstone jewellery trade for hundreds of years (dating all the way back to the reign of Louis XIV).
Sebastian Leyser, the latest generation of the Leyser family to join the business alongside his father Thomas, curates a fine selection of gemstones jewellery, object d‘arts & rare antique jewels for the show, all crafted in his fabled home-town of Idar-Oberstein (UNESCO cultural world heritage town soon to be for their long tradition of gem craftsmanship).
CASPITA by Arlène Bonnant
Passionate about contemporary art, the founder of CASPITA Arlène Bonnant is a recognized expert in 20th and 21st century art. She forged a deep knowledge of the art market by working alongside Simon de Pury and Daniella Luxembourg for eight years. After de Pury & Luxembourg became Phillips de Pury & Luxembourg, following the merger with the luxury giant LVMH, Arlène Bonnant continued her activity within the auction house in the contemporary art department.
It is the assiduous frequentation of works of art and her intimate relationship with them that pushed Arlène to explore her inner world and to embark on the creation of jewellery. The passage from one to the other happened very naturally, because according to her, a piece of jewelery is a work of art in itself.
hic & nunc
hic & nunc is a latin locution that can be translated by « here & now ». Powerful mantra that reminds us to live and enjoy every inch of time. To pursue this journey hic & nunc curates special timepieces for special collectors. No restriction regarding era, brand, style or price. The neat selection is led by passion and quality.
