the ideas for my jewellery have to be simple.

simple concepts, clear forms.

the pearls I use make that easy:
their unflawed round bodies, grown layer by layer,
without edges or rims which would determine a direction for my work.
they are perfectly formed and smooth, from whichever direction you look at them. beautiful, shining highlights.

sometimes it is a long way from the first idea to the final jewellery –
as long as it takes to remove all cumbersome and unnecessary add-ons,
or until there evolves a surprising new piece.
my jewellery is light and comfortable to wear, a radiant companion.
