Monet, originally known as Monocraft, began as a manufacturer of metal plaques for women's handbags. In the late 1920s, the company recognised a growing demand for costume jewellery as a more affordable alternative to fine jewellery. Under the leadership of Edmond Granville, a former Cartier fine jewellery designer, Monocraft transitioned into a major player in the fashion industry, eventually changing its name to Monet in 1937

Monet became famous for creating bold and sophisticated jewellery pieces that had the appearance of high-end, fine jewellery. The brand gained a reputation for its exceptional craftsmanship and high-quality materials. Today, Monet jewellery remains a popular choice among collectors and fashion enthusiasts for its timeless designs and lasting beauty
