Discover the fantastical jewellery world of Castro NYC in London

The late Terry Castro’s unique creativity took shape in rich jewellery design that encompassed his interest in mortality, masks and the animal kingdom. His jewellery brand, Castro NYC, celebrated these eclectic inspirations in one-of-a-kind pieces that doubled up as wearable artworks.

Following Castro’s passing in 2022, his son Sir King Castro has taken the reins, making a pivotal moment for the company, now highlighted in a London exhibition at Carpenters Workshop Jewellery, featuring more than 40 works, including previously unseen pieces.

‘I’m excited to show some of the archival pieces from around 2006-2008, a period when Castro first moved to New York and began developing the animal skull and mask motifs that define much of his work today,’ says Sir King Castro. ‘Additionally, we are displaying his later works, such as the “Money” brooch, made with Muzo emeralds, which represent an elevation in craft and concept that happened as a result of moving the practice to Istanbul later in his career.'
