CHARLIE DE VIEL CASTEL WAS ENCOURAGED BY AMICIE, HIS FRENCH GRANDMOTHER, TO PURSUE A LIFE OF CREATIVITY AND EXPLORATION. HER DESIRE INSTILLED IN HIM A NEVER-ENDING QUEST FOR ADVENTURE. HER FINAL GIFT TO HIM WAS A SINGLE LOOSE DIAMOND.

THIS DIAMOND INSPIRED CHARLIE TO LAUNCH CVC STONES. THE DESIGN CONCEPT CAME TO HIM AS HE WALKED BY THE SEA; LOOKING DOWN AT THE SAND HE SAW THE COLORFUL BEACH STONES HE COLLECTED AS A CHILD. EACH BEAUTIFUL STONE WAS UNIQUE, MOLDED BY ITS INDIVIDUAL JOURNEY AND THE EVER-CHANGING OCEAN TIDES.

EVERY PIECE OF FINE JEWELRY HE CREATES CONTAINS TWO ELEMENTS: PRECIOUS DIAMONDS FORMED IN THE EARTH’S MANTLE AND ORGANIC STONES COLLECTED FROM BEACHES ALL AROUND THE WORLD. THE FINAL JEWELS ARE UNIQUE, NATURAL, PRECIOUS AND INIMITABLE.

CVC STONES ARE HAND-CRAFTED IN NEW YORK.
