THE STORY OF THE HOUSE BOLOU, BOLETTE & BOLOU's DESIGN TEAM

The house BOLOU is the story of Bolette Louise Sig Mathiasen and a group of very passionate jewelery specialists and jewelery enthusiasts who have experience, quality and craftsmanship in their DNA and live and dream jewelery evry day. The entire BOLOU team is keen to convey this joy to our customers with unique pieces of craftsmanship that can tell a story for many generations to come.

In 2017, we expanded our boutique to the brand that is BOLOU Fine Jewellery, with the help of the renowned master goldsmith and designer Jochen W. Neustädter, who at the same time joined as head of workshop and designer at BOLOU. Bolette has since, in collaboration with the entire team, further developed our identity, where jewelery made from natural materials, unique gemstones and craftsmanship of the highest quality are at the centre of everything we do. Since the expansion and reopening of the store and workshop in 2017, our team has tripled in size and in 2020 a new online universe was created where it is possible to explore the jewelry from both our own collections as well as FOPE.

Today, BOLOU Fne Jewellery only sells jewelery of its own design, as well as being the only Scandinavian retailer of the Italian exclusive jewelery brand FOPE.

Our Founder Bolette

Our journey starts with our Founder, Bolette Louise Sig Mathiasen, an unconventional, funny, free-spirited and artistic woman, raised north of Copenhagen, and at boarding school in England, surrounded by entrepreneurs, tools and horses. She stood out as the creative soul of the family, with an eagerness for adventure. That might not sound like the recipe for a successful jewellery empire – nevertheless, that's how it happened. Bolette's entrepreneurial and equestrian genes got their first kick-start at the age of 9 when her grandfather took her to watch horseraces on Sundays, and taught her how 20 Danish Kroner put as a bet on the right horse could turn into 100 Danish Kroner in an afternoon. Gambling in itself was however not of great interest to Bolette, but both the horses and the idea of running something herself had her heart from a very young age. The natural drive and a large amount of wanderlust brought Bolette to Italy where she found her love not only for the country, the language and the people, but also for jewellery, the craft tradition and the Italians' unrelenting focus on quality. This was the first step towards her long and distinguished career in the jewelery industry.

Bolette is a trained goldsmith, designer and stone setter trained in Italy, as well as a gemmologist from GIA in New York. She specializes in diamonds, colored gemstones and pearls, and has built a massive network of trusted international diamond and gemstone suppliers.

At BOLOU, we have many years of experience in crafting and selling the best quality jewellery, designing unique jewellery according to our customers' wishes and needs, as well as combining traditional craftsmanship with innovative techniques and designs
