About Corpus Christi

The design genius behind Parisian jeweler Corpus Christi is Thierry Gougenot. This jewelry collection is heavily influenced by popular and religious iconography - and has unisex appeal which makes this collection au courant, versatile and way cool.

Thierry was born in Lyon, France, where he spent his childhood and graduated from art school. Naturally passionate about the arts, Thierry spent his early career as a successful painter and apprenticing with a sculptor. His move to fashion came during a stint selling collectable vintage clothing, after which he launched his accessory line, Corpus Christi, along with longtime friend Emmanuelle Zysman. They started designing bags at first and then moved on to jewelry, a perfect progression which allowed Thierry to combine the creative experiences of his life and express his modern view of traditions.

We have long admired Corpus Christi jewelry and quite honestly, we don't know what took us so long to add this amazing line to our roster! We know you'll agree that Thierry embodies the coolest elements of Parisian chic - and for those of you who've been waiting for some men's jewelry, here you are... enjoy!
