HEMMERLE
Founded in 1893, Hemmerle is a family-run jeweller, recognised globally for its audacity and craftsmanship. Incorporating unique and bold amalgams of material, the designs are as inventive as they are functional. Stones and found objects are sourced through extensive travel and re-purposed when combined with unconventional woods and metals, producing handcrafted pieces that explore the intersection between artistry and engineering.
With an ethos centred around pushing boundaries, Hemmerle’s jewels are works of art in themselves, representing unbounded curiosity, technical experimentation, evolving tradition, and aesthetic individuality. Rich in cultural references, the pieces are reflections of the timeless connection between past and present, with heritage at heart and innovation at the horizon.
Hemmerle jewels are included in the permanent collections of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum in New York, and the Die Neue Sammlung in Munich.
