Christopher R. King is often described by people who know him as a modern day Renaissance man. Even more than a designer, creator, innovator, and entrepreneur, he is a man with a vision. Though born in America, King has a deep connection and appreciation for his European roots. With his profound respect for tradition and old-world craftsmanship, his vision is to reinvigorate and rediscover a sense of pride in the history, heritage, and detail of centuries ago; essentially reviving the foundation for the world of luxury, as we know it today. With this vision and extreme attention to detail, he hopes to heighten the standards, not only of the luxury industry, but also for the modern day gentleman.
King is an established authority in the luxury industry after over 15 years of dedication to perfection, building relationships, and garnering respect from industry leaders worldwide. He has a knack for creating successful businesses too, for example, his love and breadth of knowledge for fine wines, lead him to co-found, along with industry leader Robert Mondavi, the successful wine label known as King of Clubs. The wine label went on to be quoted by Forbes Magazine as possibly the “best cult wine in Napa” in 2014. Through both his business ventures and creative endeavors, King has the unique ability to see, create, and magnify luxurious details in a way that nobody else can. His brand, CCCXXXIII, is an embodiment of his vision; exclusive, high quality, limited edition products handmade by some of the finest craftsmen in the world. Most recently, at the prestigious Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, King unveiled an extremely limited bespoke Aston Martin DBS Superleggera that he curated and designed to invoke the true soul of what Aston Martin meant to him. Living out his passion, Mr. King dedicates his time to creative projects that contribute to his overall vision of reviving old-world quality, sophistication, and the art of the gentleman.
As Founder, Designer, and Creative Director, Christopher R. King is dedicated to preserving the culture of traditional craftsmanship and truly limited luxury through CCCXXXIII (Three Hundred Thirty-Three). His commitment, illustrated through the company name, is to limit the production of each product to only three hundred, thirty-three, or three pieces worldwide.
Proving his boundless creativity, Christopher R. King had a vision for an extremely limited and bespoke passion project with his dear friends at Aston Martin. Thus, Mr. King curated, designed and collaborated with the Q team by Aston Martin to create a 2019 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, limited to only three. Mr. King’s namesake was used as inspiration for the unique exterior color for this car, Kingsway White.
