Description

Kirsten Sonne Pewter fork brooch cleverly combines a spring with a pewter fork-like piece from a bread-basket. She made this pewter fork brooch from several recycled and collaged elements in her characteristic style. While she sometimes works on themes or in series, like all her works, this is a unique design. Kirsten is a fantastic collector of delightful odds and ends that end up as jewels.

About the artist

Kirsten’s work is always chic and individual, often witty and full of fun.. She understands balance and proportion. A former graphic designer, she has contemporary art and design as part of her background.  She is also inspired by high-end,  street fashion, and other jewellery, modern and ethnic.

Recycled materials inspire her and are the basis of her work. She makes everything by hand and never exactly repeats a piece, though she sometimes pursues themes and series. So, you can count on each piece being unique. Often she will make  special ranges of earrings, brooches, bracelets and necklaces  to fit Groundwork’s themes.

Living and working in Denmark, Kirsten has her own shop in Copenhagen . She sells through many art galleries, and in England also sells at the jewellery gallery @work in London.
