Christian Ghion
Born in 1958 in Montmorency, where he grew up and studied.
He graduated from the ENSCI (Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle).
He then founded his own design studio with Patrick Nadeau, with whom he signed numerous projects.
They received the Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris in 1991. Their collaboration lasted about ten years, but in 1998, he decided to pursue his adventure as a solo artist.
This was followed by encounters that marked his career decisively: Andrée Putman in 1994, the designer Teruo Kurosaki, whom he met during his semester in Tokyo in 1995 and who decided to market his furniture, and Philippe Starck in 1997.
A true jack-of-all-trades, Christian Ghion is today recognized for his creations of objects and furniture, but also for his talents as an interior architect and stage designer.
Drawing his inspiration from the arts and Asia, which he is particularly fond of, he signs objects, furniture, vases, jewelry and accessories for prestigious brands such as Cinna, Daum, Fred, Christian Dior and Laguiole in France, or Cappellini, Driade, Nespresso, Salviati and Sawaya & Moroni internationally.
Since 2017, he has been collaborating regularly with the MiniMasterpiece gallery for the edition of jewelry. In the fall of 2020, he will hold his first solo jewelry exhibition there, unveiling nearly 15 never-before-seen pieces of jewelry.
