Lotte began making jewelry in New York City in the late '90s. Her passion is to create beautiful timeless pieces meant to be worn daily, to become part of your narrative and enjoyed for generations. Inspired by the free-flowing shapes of everyday life, the jewelry is bold, strong and beautifully edgy whilst retaining a raw elegance. She designs, hand carves, and casts every piece in her Northern California studio using the ancient art of lost wax casting. Each design is an exercise of "beauty in simplicity."
