Péry is a great Parisian manufacturing jeweler run by one family for three generations. Famous for its close association with Van Cleef & Arpels since 1925, the Péry workshop worked for years with René Sim Lecaze and Reneee Van Cleef on the Duchess of Windsor's commission of the Van Cleef & Arpels "Zip" necklace, a marvel of jewelry engineering that took years to bring to fruition. The firm was finally absorbed into Van Cleef & Arpels in 2012.
