A Love story,
César and Manon
We met at the age of 12, at school. Since then, we have grown up, loved, travelled and built ventures together, eventually creating a life of our own.
Over the years, one idea became clear: to create a Maison together that would reflect who we are. Free, contemporary and bold, with love always at its heart.
And what could be more natural than the diamond, a symbol of eternal love, to bring this vision to life?
In 2020, while living in New York, we discovered lab-grown diamonds. We immediately saw them as a new way of thinking about fine jewellery: more contemporary, more free, and able to challenge established conventions.
We decided to return to France to create ODACE, the new generation diamond house.
Today, we believe in a simple conviction: the beauty and emotion of a diamond go beyond its origin. Natural or lab-grown diamonds: two origins, two stories. One shared purpose: to celebrate the moments that matter.
Because love, true love, deserves to be celebrated.
At ODACE, every piece of jewellery tells a story. The story of an “I love you”, an “I’m here”, a “never forget”. The story of a moment you choose to keep close, when your heart beats just a little faster.
We create jewellery for those who love boldly, dare to commit and choose to shine differently.
With boldness. With elegance. With love.

Our conviction:
Daring to Shine Differently
“We don’t want to reproduce yesterday’s conventions. We want to help shape those of tomorrow.”
From the very beginning, ODACE made a bold choice: to build its Maison around lab-grown diamonds, at a time when they were still highly innovative in France.
We immediately saw them as a new way of thinking about diamonds: more contemporary, more free, and able to challenge the conventions of a still very traditional jewellery industry.
Nearly five years later, the diamond world has changed. Lab-grown diamonds have become more widely available, expectations have evolved, and we are proud to have been among the first to give them a place in France.
Today, that conviction remains at the heart of ODACE.
It has not changed. It has expanded.
Our ambition now goes further: to be a Maison with true diamond expertise, able to offer everyone the choice that feels right for them, whether natural or lab-grown.
Because we do not believe natural and lab-grown diamonds need to be opposed.
Instead, we believe everyone should be able to understand their differences, take the time to compare them and choose freely, without preconceived ideas.
No conflict. No bias. No imposed choice.
Expertise, nuance and freedom.
Sharing our expertise, without yesterday’s conventions.
Because we do not believe there is one diamond for everyone.
We believe there is a diamond that feels right for you, at this moment in your life.
Choosing a diamond does not define who you are. Your choice can evolve with your desires, your story, your plans, your budget and your values.
Our role is not to choose for you.
It is to empower you to choose with confidence, at every stage of your story.
That is what Oser Briller Autrement means to us.
Two choices for your diamond. One ODACE standard of excellence.
Personal Guidance.
Time to understand.
Time to choose.
At ODACE, we take the time.
The time to listen to you, to explain the differences between natural and lab-grown diamonds, to talk you through the 4Cs, certifications and everything that truly matters when choosing a diamond.
The time to show you, compare, answer all your questions and give you the knowledge you need to understand, rather than telling you what you should choose.
And finally, the time to guide you until you find the diamond that feels right for you.
We believe in fine jewellery that is exacting yet approachable, expert yet never intimidating, contemporary yet made to last.
This same commitment is reflected in every creation: each piece is designed and crafted with passion in Paris, respecting French jewellery savoir-faire and with meticulous attention to every detail.
Take the time to understand.
Take the time to choose.
Because an important choice deserves all the time it needs.
ODACE
