Born in the 1950s in the south of France, Marc Labat grew up in the Toulouse region, and graduated from the École Supérieure de Commerce External Trade (ESCE) in Paris. Passionate about travel, he began his career in the jewelry business in South America (Chile and Brazil) in the 1970s.

While traveling around the world, he discovered the use of unconventional materials to create costume jewelry – multi-colored resin, wheat grains and flower petals embedded in the material.

In the early 1980s, Labat returned to Paris to create his own brand of leather goods, accessories, handbags and costume jewelry. A wholesaler of costume jewelry, he opened three boutiques in Paris: 94 rue du Temple, 45 rue Vieille du Temple, and 77 rue de Rennes.

Incorporated in 1986, Мarc Lаbаt Paris company most likely ceased to exist in 2016, and all three boutiques are permanently closed.
