Founded in 1903, Maison Becker was created by the renowned French artist Edmond-Henri Becker.
Born in 1871 in Paris, the artist and sculptor gained attention in 1900 when he received the gold medal at the Boucheron stand at the Salon des Artistes exhibition.
Recognized in France and internationally, Edmond-Henri Becker was also awarded the "medal of honor" in 1937 and devoted a large part of his career to the medal, of which he became the great specialist.
He will be recognized as a renowned artist of his time with his very realistic representations of children and women on various collectibles.

Even today, some of the artist Edmond-Henri Becker's masterpieces are exhibited in museums in France, such as the Musée d'Orsay, and internationally at the British Museum in London and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in the United States, among others.

Maison Becker experienced a true renaissance in 2024 when it was taken over by La Médaille Française, created with commitment by Rachel Marouani, former President of Fred Joaillier and Adrien Collange, former Director of Operations at Fred Joaillier and former workshop manager at Maison Cartier.
These two enthusiasts decided to relocate all manufacturing from Thailand to their own workshops in France in order to preserve the beauty and know-how of French heritage.

Today, Maison Becker continues to manufacture exceptional medals, combining traditional techniques and innovation to create pieces of great finesse. Becker medals have been distinguished for over a century by the precision of their designs, which bring out facial expressions in a unique way.
Thanks to the richness and timeless elegance of their detailed engravings, Becker models span generations, perpetuating a French heritage of excellence and refinement.

Classified as a Living Heritage Company, our two factories, located in Lourdes and in the Lyon region, produce all Becker creations.
Each piece is carefully crafted by one of our experienced artisans, guaranteeing the quality and exclusivity of the jewelry.
