With a rich history dating back to 1941, Sauer has been at the top of its game in gemology and fine-jewelry-making from day one. Jules Sauer founded his eponymous company in Brazil after fleeing Europe in the Second World War, and he went on to win numerous Diamonds International Awards for contemporary, artful pieces thoughtfully designed with exceptional craftsmanship. These days, the company’s creative director is Stephanie Wenk. With a background in psychology and fashion in addition to gemology, she curates collections largely inspired by constellations, esoteric dimensions, bibliographic references, artistic movements, and architectural and scientific studies.
