He creates unique jewelry for individuals, but occasionally collaborates with large companies like the Eastern & Oriental Express, for whom he has created jewelry inspired by this train journey.
His works have been exhibited at the Grand Palais in Paris, the Metropolitan Art Museum in Tokyo, and the Thaddaeus Ropac gallery, among others.
