He passed away on August 11, 1989, in Luynes, Indre-et-Loire, at the age of 92. He married Alice Pochiet (1901-1985), daughter of the jeweler Maxime Pochiet (1877-1955), creator of the Edyad brand, on July 30, 1921, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris. René Auguste Pochiet initially set up his workshop at 17 rue Béranger, 75003 Paris, in the Enfants-Rouges neighborhood. He later moved to 39 rue Volta, 75003 Paris, in the Marais district. His hallmark was registered on February 25, 1933. It featured a brilliant cut diamond surrounded by the letters RMP, which stand for the initials of his first name and last name (R and M for René Morin), and his wife's last name (P for Pochiet). This hallmark appeared in the \"Azur\" directory from 1937 to 1983. This directory was a reference book listing the addresses of all manufacturers and merchants of jewelry, jewelers, and goldsmiths. The brand later became \"Morin Pochiet, fils et successeurs\" (Morin Pochiet, son and successors). It existed until 1983.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"foundresse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45990756122790,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0637\/7645\/6870\/files\/F134A2E9-DE7F-4F75-831F-775C2E1841B2.jpg?v=1733199081"},{"product_id":"encrusted-shell-fragment-with-barnacles","title":"Encrusted Shell Fragment with Barnacles","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn extraordinary natural sculpture formed by the sea, this large shell—likely once a whelk or conch—has become a richly textured marine relic, now entirely encrusted with barnacles and small bivalve shells.
