Meet our founder and great-grandfather: J.F. Slaets
Meet J.F. Slaets, our founder and great-grandfather, who started a small workshop together with his wife in 1904. In his tiny atelier, somewhere in a quiet little village in Flanders, surrounded by nature, he quietly crafted, repaired and sold jewellery, clocks and pocket watches. In that period, clocks or pocket watches were the only tools to read the time at home or on the go. The wristwatch as we know it today was not even invented yet and only gained popularity much later.
Today, 4 generations later, the passion for quality and craftsmanship has never worn off. The tiny workshop made way for state-of-the-art retail destinations, the peaceful nature turned into buzzing shopping streets and the quiet little town was exchanged for the city of diamonds, Antwerp.
