Mazlo

Mazlo is a jewellery house of Lebanese origin, established in Paris since 1977.[1][2][3]

Its origins date back to the fifteenth century, when the founder of the dynasty, Georgius Sayegh el-Mazloum left Lebanon to settle in Venice.[4]

Since the early-1970s, the house is based in Paris and headed by Robert Mazloum said "Mazlo." Goldsmith and jeweler, he revives the family's traditions by creating one off bespoke jewellery pieces.[5]

Parallel to his Haute Joaillerie pieces, he develops a line of prayer beads called "Masbahas" for the Gulf countries, distributed in Tanagra concept stores.[6][7]
