Story
This work of art was designed to express the self-confidence and power of successful businessmen,
displaying the emperor of the mythical animals coiling around
and gripping with his talons and fangs, a luxurious bowl made out of gold, platinum, and diamonds.
Moreover, the notch in the bowl and the tip of the tail were crafted
and positioned to rest a Cohiba: one of the ultimate symbols of accomplishment.

YVES LEMAY: ARMORER, JEWELER, TEACHER
I was born in a country of icy winters and warm-hearted people, and my passion for fine armors brought me to the Montréal school of jewelry in which I started practicing techniques that were meant to make it possible to design and create some of the most intricate and beautiful armors in the world.
During an internship in the best and most respected jewelry company in Canada, Henry Birks & Sons, I got noticed by then chef d’atelier Monsieur Alain Marcel for my sure hands and raw talent.
After being employed as a polisher by Birks, I opened my fine jewelry atelier in vibrant Shanghai, where I made hundreds of clients’ engagement and wedding jewelry among others and consulted with some of the most respected companies in the world of luxury, like Piaget.
In 2009 I also started teaching the craft of designing and creating jewelry, taking my students to a professional level. As for today, my dream of fine armor design and creations still lives on…
