FOUNDER & ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
Caroline Joude
Raised around the world of diamonds and trained in gemology in Paris. Joud’s is the house she built from both.
From a world of diamonds to a house of personal jewelry
Caroline Joude is the founder and artistic director of Joud’s. Raised around the world of diamonds, she first looked for her own creative path before returning to the stones that had surrounded her since childhood.
She trained in gemology at the Laboratoire Français de Gemmologie in Paris, building the technical foundation that now guides her choice of diamonds and precious gemstones. To finance her first designs, she began sourcing and reselling stones, and launched Joud’s in 2023.
The name comes from her family name, Joude. Her French upbringing, Middle Eastern roots and South American heritage run through a creative world built on emotion, symbolism and freedom.
Caroline designs every Joud’s piece herself, with one intention: to turn a story, a relationship or a defining moment into something that can be worn and kept.
“A jewel becomes truly precious when it carries something only its wearer can fully understand.”
