The story of Bakhache Jewellery began with a profound love for vintage treasures. With an innate understanding of the art of fine jewellery, Bakhache Jewellery embodies the essence of curated opulence, where every piece reflects a collector's devotion to the intricacies of design and the allure of unparalleled luxury.
"I have been a jeweller and a gemologist for more than 35 years and have helped establish big jewellery brands in Asia from all over the world," shares the visionary founder, Antoine Bakhache, a distinguished name in the industry with over 35 years of experience as a jeweller and gemologist. "My love for vintage jewellery started many years ago when I visited antique stores and auction houses both in Europe and the United States."
Before launching Bakhache Jewellery's physical store at the new Seibu at The Exchange TRX, Bakhache has been selling its curated vintage collection for the past few years at the brand's private house in Bangsar. The response has been overwhelming. "This made me realise that having a more public location would be at good idea to showcase the special pieces that we curate and, therefore, share the full collection with the public. We can now tell the story to a bigger audience, which is exciting," he says.
