A NEW LANDMARK DESTINATION FOR HIGH JEWELRY IN NEW YORK
To mark its 20th anniversary, Messika unveils its new flagship on Madison Avenue, a landmark destination for the Maison’s most exclusive High Jewelry creations.
Conceived as an intimate Parisian residence, the boutique stands as a testament to Valérie Messika’s artistic direction. It unfolds in a palette of shadowed blues, black velvet, muted golds, and soft beige. Blending contemporary elegance with the cosmopolitan refinement of Café Society : an era that embodied a new art de vivre, the space radiates both cultural vibrancy and modern sophistication. It stands as the Maison’s first and only boutique devoted exclusively to its Fine and High Jewelry collections.
Steeped in French artisanal tradition, the boutique pays tribute to the materials, designers, and artists cherished by its Founder and Artistic Director. Every element of the boutique bears the imprint of craft: the blue-grey rug woven by STEPEVI anchors the space, Atelier Martin Berger’s pigments lend depth to the walls - complete the ensemble with quiet sophistication. At the back, a discreet VIP salon enclosed by sliding metal mesh panels by Belgian artist Luc Druez and a luminous bar using technique of marble veneer applied on a flexible backing, further enhance this residence-like feeling.
Art and design play a central role in the boutique’s narrative. A Matisse sketch, a re-edition of Helmut Newton’s iconic photography, and Murano glass vase are among the emblematic works curated within the space. The objects featured have been meticulously selected by Valérie Messika herself, whether personal treasures or unique finds from her childhood memories and travels, each resonating with the Maison’s spirit of audacity and refinement, and bringing intimacy to this exceptional setting.
