Bio
James de Givenchy’s distinctive designs arise from his innovative approach to combining materials with a modernist sensibility. TAFFIN, founded in 1996 by designer James Taffin de Givenchy, is a New York-based design house known for embracing the unconventional. Givenchy, originally from Beauvais, France, was drawn to the vibrant diversity of New York City. After gaining valuable experience at prestigious auction houses and jewelry companies, Givenchy established TAFFIN as a luxury salon for his private clients.
TAFFIN’s innovative designs are a testament to Givenchy’s appreciation for craftsmanship, the rich history of high jewelry, and his ability to infuse his knowledge of design into his work. He is known for his sculptural jewelry pieces that celebrate the unique qualities of gemstones, often juxtaposed with unexpected materials such as rubber, steel, wood, and ceramic, a material he introduced into his jewelry in 2006. Givenchy’s contemporary creations showcase rare stones and, at times, everyday objects, resulting in one-of-a-kind pieces.
