What Justine Clenquet is known for
French jewelry line launched in 2010 by Justine Clenquet, then an 18-year-old student at Paris's École Duperré; punk-influenced pieces such as safety-pin chokers and crystal ear cuffs are handmade at the designer's atelier near Lille.
Justine Clenquet launched her eponymous jewelry line in 2010 at age 18, while a student at Paris's École Duperré, having interned with designers including Baptiste Viry and Emmanuelle Khanh. Raised near Lille, she now runs her atelier and company from that region. Her designs subvert traditional goldsmithing with punk references - safety-pin chokers, crystal-covered ear cuffs - drawing on 1980s and '90s cinema and underground fanzine culture. Pieces are handmade in France.
