Lucas Bauer

Eyes on Talents member, Lucas Bauer, joined the incubator Les Ateliers de Paris at the start of September. The designer creates organic, poetic jewellery that connects the body to the living world, inspired by the Mediterranean landscapes of his childhood in Marseille. After eight years at Louis Vuitton, where he worked as a jewellery and accessories designer in the Women’s studio, he founded the Lucas Bauer Jewellery studio in 2022. Beginning by making bespoke jewellery, he launched his first collection, HYPHOS, in September 2024. The collection is a tribute to the unseen world and features delicate jewellery in gold, silver, vermeil and precious stones that evolve into organic forms, gently expanding to curve around the body. Winner of a 2025 call for projects from the French Ministry of Culture, Lucas Bauer is currently developing his second collection, deepening his research on body adornment and paying homage to nature. At the same time, he teaches jewellery and accessories, passing on research and design methodologies to his students, as well as a careful approach to recycling and reusing materials.
