Inspired by Difference.

Ori Tao's story began in 1982, when Jean-Daniel Christin created the brand Nature Bijoux. An ornithologist and naturalist with a passion for nature and a newfound interest in natural materials, he launched his first jewelry collection with original, unique, and novel pieces. A few years later, his three children—Manuelle, Amaury, and Simon—joined him to develop the brands Franck Herval and Ori Tao. Together, they created the group Les Chamanes.

Based in the south of France, the company chose to set up manufacturing workshops in the Philippines to stay closer to nature. Craftsmen and designers work in a family-like atmosphere, where strong team spirit and a pleasant environment foster creativity.

Everything is controlled in-house—from creation to distribution, and every step of the design process—to offer handcrafted, creative, high-quality pieces.

With Les Chamanes, we aim to present a diverse offering infused with novelty, initiative, freshness, and originality, all while caring for the environment.
