The Story Behind Charles Krypell
The Story Behind Charles Krypell

Charles Krypell attended the Pratt Institute in New York and soon discovered his preferred design work was in three-dimensional media like clay, wood, brass and stone. He apprenticed under master carver-turned-sculptor Toshio Odate, and went on to work alongside porcelain designer Sandra Pailet after graduation. He soon realized porcelain wasn’t the medium he loved, and began turning his creativity toward jewelry.

In 1976, he formed Charles Krypell Inc. and began fueling his passion to create jewelry for the sophisticated collector. He began to find his own style as he worked more in sterling silver. His first major success came with the creation of the Krypell Collection, made of platinum and gold designs, with matched rubies, emeralds, sapphires and diamonds.  

Today, Charles Krypell has been contracted by everyone from celebrities, specialty collectors, and royalty to create his unique jewelry. His talents expand beyond creative design, he sets out to understand human nature so “customers not only love the pieces they buy but feel important wearing them.” He constantly challenges himself and raises expectations of what sophisticated jewelry is!
