Jean Biollay

 

born on March 10, 1980, in Saint-Maurice, Valais, and father of four children

Determined to become a forester and lumberjack, it was during his final year of school that he met his manual labor teacher, who introduced him to working with steel.

A few months later, against all expectations, he began his apprenticeship as a metalworker.

During his four years of training, which culminated in an award for "best apprentice in the canton," he developed a particular interest in artistic creations and unique pieces that could be made in his field.

At the age of 21, he started his own company in collaboration with an entrepreneur specializing in high-end creations for major watchmakers. This enabled him to meet the needs of a highly demanding clientele with often extravagant requests.

 

Today, he practices his craft with his company and enjoys himself at Atelier Pyrite, creating works without the constraints found in today's industry.
