Goossens is one of the most prestigious names in haute couture jewelry of the last half century. Robert Goossens collaborated with Coco Chanel in the 1950s and continued to design jewelry for top fashion houses, seeking remarkable partnerships with Balenciaga, Grès, and Yves Saint Laurent. In addition to the iconic rock crystal jewelry, baroque petrol buttons, and Byzantine bracelets famously associated with Chanel, the designs of Maison Goossens combine real and faux gemstones, making them fashion jewelry that is both precious and bold. Robert's son, Patrick, has redesigned many of Goossens’ original stylistic creations for Dior, Alexander McQueen, and Louis Vuitton, among others. His daughter, Martine, regularly collaborates with architect Peter Marino to decorate the interiors of the most famous couture houses worldwide. Maison Goossens is now part of the dedicated team of exceptional artisans under the guardianship of Chanel.
