King Baby Jewelry And The Brand’s Illustrious Founder

26 Jul

A useful discussion about the King Baby style, King Baby Jewelry and the brand’s illustrious founder Mitchell Binder. This discourse follows the reader through the founding of the King Baby label label and its quick ascension to the peak of the sterling silver gothic jewelry industry.

Mitchell Binder is the designer, founder and brains behind the immensely prominent King Baby Studio gothic silver jewelry luxury designer label. Way back in the 70’s, when the teenage Mitchell Binder and his mother shifted from Jackson, Mississippi to LA California, the young & impressionable Binder found himself inescapably inspired by the rock culture, which rose from the ashes of the 1960s hippie culture.

Playing an integral part of the new environment of punk culture, music symbolized a new spirit of idealism and newfound freedoms. Artistes like Jimi Hendrix, Joplin & The Dead ruled the airwaves. As Mitchell puts it “it was the ’summer of love’ & my mind was officially blown”.

At fifteen, Mitchell took up a job as a jeweler’s apprentice and promptly thereafter began designing his own jewelry pieces. Using the gift of his trademark charismatic personality, Mitchell Binder easily made strong celebrity contacts and quickly went on to become the ‘go to man’ for both Hollywood and rock stars for all their gothic sterling silver jewelry wants and needs. King Baby patrons feature the legendary Elizabeth Taylor to the rock & roll royalty of the contemporary era. Another group of ardent fans are bikers, a group which frequently orders customized gothic sterling silver jewelry and gothic styled buckles. As an avid rider himself, Mitchell considers the character of his outfit to be “half rock & roll and half outlaw biker.”

Originally designing purely for male audiences, Mitchell Binder quickly recognized a great many women also enjoyed buying sterling silver gothic jewelry for themselves. In 2007, King Baby Studio officially launched Queen Baby jewelry catering to women, with extraordinary success.

Today, the Santa Monica-based King Baby Studio offers individually crafted pieces which merge weighty gothic sterling silver jewelry encrusted with precious and semi precious stones and stylish leather. Binder’s gothic silver jewelry pieces are bold & heavy, incorporating edgy, magnetic designs such as skulls and daggers for the King Baby gothic silver jewelry line, and relatively scaled down feminine motifs & designs such as roses, alphabets, zodiacs & crowned hearts for fans of Queen Baby jewelry. Several themes span both collections. Venturing on a separate collaborative effort, King Baby jewelry also makes gothic sterling silver jewelry for Nikki Sixx & Kelly Gray’s Royal Underground line of gothic sterling silver jewelry.

In buying gothic jewelry, it is important to confirm the quality of jewelry you are buying.
