This is a long shot I'm sure but on the off-chance that some Paris experts might know what I'm looking for...

1. Does anyone know where in Paris I might find jewellry under the "Corpus Christie" label? There's a local shop that sells some of the line but I'd love to see more and in its "home town". Themes of crowns, skulls, dageers.. but all very delicate with little extras like pearls, feathers, coral. An internet search hasn't turned up much.

2. A number of years ago my mom bought a beret in London - but it was from a French store. Black berets with interesting patterns on them in creamy white - some geometric, swirls, etc. She's got a bad sense of direction and has no idea what part of London she was in when she bought it! I'm hoping to find the shop in Paris where they originate.

Anyone?
I'm hoping I might be able to find these 2 things when I'm there in early December.

In perpignan about 4 weeks ago, there were berets, scarves and gloves all in matching colours in the Galleries Lafayettes - large dept. store. If you google the name, the address in Paris will come up.
Have you tried googling the jewelry by name and looking for stockists?

Thanks for your reply annhig.
I did google the Corpus Christi line but only found very limited stock and that was actually in the US. I was kind of hoping that, since the line is evidently Paris-based, it would be available there at less cost and with more selection.

I have been to Galleries Lafayette on my previous trip to Paris - pretty wonderful isn't it? I will definitely visit again on this upcoming trip.
The berets I am looking for are probably from a shop that sells this line only. Mom bought hers from a London outlet of the French maker of them. There were about a dozen designs available and they were all illustrated on the paper bag.

Wow! Thank you so much Travelnut!
There are some wonderful hats on that Chapellerie Julias site.
I think that might be the place - one of the berets on the website (with a sun shape on it) looks like what I'm looking for.... but there is so much more there too!

I really appreciate your help.
