Christopher King Launches Luxury Leather and Home Collection in Coral Gables
Luxury visionary Christopher R. King has officially launched his namesake brand, Christopher King, redefining Italian craftsmanship and timeless design with a curated collection of premium leather goods, accessories, and artisanal home pieces. Each item is meticulously handcrafted by generational artisans in his 7,000-square-foot factory outside of Florence, Italy, blending centuries-old techniques with a bold, modern aesthetic.
The Palazzo: A 12,000-Square-Foot Flagship in Coral Gables
Marking the brand’s grand debut is The Palazzo, a 12,000-square-foot flagship store located at 800 S Douglas Road, also known as La Puerta del Sol. This Mediterranean-style landmark, once owned by Coral Gables founder George Merrick, now serves as Christopher King’s retail showroom, corporate office, and an exclusive event space, echoing the fusion of Florentine heritage and South Florida elegance.
Craftsmanship at Its Finest: Luxury Leather Goods and Home Collection
Christopher King’s premium leather goods and accessories are a decade in the making, sourced from exquisite Italian leathers, exotic materials, and solid brass hardware. Signature pieces include The Duffle Bag, a meticulously constructed masterpiece with over 140 individual components, featuring 61 solid brass hardware pieces, galvanized in gold and KINGSWAY Blue interiors—a hallmark of King’s two decades of design expertise.
Beyond leather goods, the brand’s artisanal home collection elevates luxury living with impeccable porcelain tableware, silver and gold flatware, plush linens, and bespoke furniture, redefining the essence of modern opulence.
A Legacy of Excellence: Christopher King’s Vision
From collaborating with Aston Martin on limited-edition designs to producing Napa Valley’s celebrated “cult” wines, King has consistently demonstrated an uncompromising commitment to perfection.
“An unwavering passion to create better, push boundaries, and set new standards of excellence drives everything I touch. These pieces are for those who both expect and demand the best.”
