Julian Lafosse is a certified gemmologist based in Uccle, Brussels.

Trained through the SRBG-FEEG and certified as a Diamond Grader by HRD Antwerp, he has built L'Œil au Trésor around a simple conviction: an antique jewel is never merely an accessory. It is a work that carries an era, a savoir-faire, a soul.

Savoir-faire & Expertise

Where most Brussels dealers work in gold alone, L'Œil au Trésor deals in both gold and silver — a deliberate choice, and a rare one. Silver holds some of the finest work of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods, and it deserves the same attention.

Each piece is examined, dated and documented before it is offered: the stones identified, the hallmarks read, the period established. What you are told about a jewel is what can be demonstrated about it.
