I draw my inspiration from my closest surroundings, both urban and natural, and the people I meet. All my designs spring from an impression – a flutter of a leaf, a glint of an eye, a long-forgotten song, an overheard conversation, a simple landscape. Such impressions are then turned into quick sketches and later developed into more complex drawings.

While I let the imagination roam free when drawing, the actual making of jewellery remains bound in the realm of the usable, comfortable, flattering and accessible. My jewellery is made to be worn. It is made for its weight to be forgotten – to be as light and nonchalant as to disappear in the ear, on the neck, wrist, or finger. Gold, silver, diamonds and precious stones have a great potential to radiate warmth, softness and vibrancy. I combine this potential with a strong edge and clean lines to adapt the jewellery to the velocity of modern life. The unity of softness and strength is what I strive for.
