THE PROCESS
DESIGN
C+1 is the culmination of multi-generational and multi-cultural ideas. All of our work is made with craftsmanship and integrity as the top priority. Our current works are made by Chie Teratani and Christy Conrad, both working partners and lifelong friends. Chie, being from Japan, brings a unique sophistication to the designs while Christy helps to compliment with a modern fresh perspective.
COLLABORATION
Christy met Chie at the Fashion institute of Technology where Chie was Christy’s professor. Now with a combined 50 years of Jewelry making experience, leaves no question in the craftsmanship and quality of our work.
​
The works you see here is will be released in a series of collections each made by either Christy or Chie individually. The collections from C+1 are a compliment of both Chie and Christy's perspective to create our brand, C+1.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
At C+1 the designers are the makers so vision is never limited by lack of understanding. All our collections are uniquely hand carved then modeled in house to make sure each piece is perfect before it leaves the studio. Quality does not stop with our jewelry; all of our packaging is made with the future of our world in mind. C+1 vows to never sacrifice the environment for cheaper packaging. Plant our paper and it will grow.
