Manifesto
What does it mean to be a man?
Bleu Nomade is the work of two brothers who strongly believe in the freedom of speech, the freedom of being themselves. For a few years, they have felt that there is confusion on what it means to be a man in the society.
To them, being a man is about showing up in the world with authenticity, telling your deepest truth and being proud of it. Bleu Nomade was built around the concept of « be here now » and « be your true self ». No acting, no pretending.
History, Art and Culture are the key drivers that inspire them in all their creations, giving true meaning to each piece and representing the quintessential masculinity. Vikings, Persians, Romans are centered to their creations.
Because to men it is easier to communicate through Art; a Tattoo, a Jewel and a Fragrance express an emotion more than any word can.
Animated by a desire of creating their own unique pieces and answering to a need of feeling like a man, they created their first signature fragrance back in 2019, followed by a collection of jewels.
Raw, bold, fearless.
"We exist to remind the wearer to follow his personal path, focus on what’s real & to stay true to himself. It's a kind of mantra. What we want is to inspire a way of living life to the fullest."
— Davide Calligaris
Artisan craft
Our collections are made the old fashioned way, honoring traditional techniques, handcrafted by true artisans in Valenza, Northern Italy, a city known for its technological and stylistic innovation for more than 200 years. This Goldsmithing district, in between Torino and Asti, is filled with artisans perfectionning their skills and passing them from generation to generation. Each piece of jewelry is a masterpiece, taking hours of hard work.
In a society lead by industrialization and overproduction, Bleu Nomade is committed to preserving the tradition of Italian artisans, their culture and their heritage. Valenza is an emblematic city of unique craftsmanship and this is what we want to honor.
Bleu Nomade pieces are made the old fashioned way, to stand
the test of time.
Climate +
we love our planet and fight for its conservation. It is crucial for us to evaluate our CO2 footprint. A carbon footprint is measured in tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent that are generated by our activity. For example, sending an e-mail costs the planet about 19 grams of CO2. It is possible to compensate our footprint by investing in projects that have positive impacts on our planet, such as reforestation, and thus have an overall CO2 neutral impact on the enviornment.
At Bleu Nomade, we do better. We go Climate+.
According to the world bank, most of the countries consum 1 ton of CO2 per capita yearly. This figures increases to 2 tons in Australia, Canada, Estonia, Luxembourg, United States and several oil exporting countries.
At Bleu Nomade, we have decided to invest in ecofriendly projects that will compensate 10 times our consumption by donating to the WithOneSeed program. WithOneSeed is the first Gold Standard verified carbon forestry program in Timor Leste. It is working with subsistence farming communities to replant their forests thereby creating a carbon store to build local economies, deliver practical education and training in agroforestry and permaculture to create a more sustainable, equal and just world.
