Suzanne Esser Sieraden
Making jewelry is a passion.
Apart from jewelry I also make objects. I show and sell in galleries and at exhibitions both in the
Netherlands and abroad.
My jewelry is often constructed from elementary shapes such as spheres and cones, which I sometimes
join together in groups. Jewelry must be wearable, of course, but I consider this secondary to my designs.
I work with a variety of materials such as wood (often ebony) or metals, both precious and non-precious.
I use a lathe for wood working, Often I use unusual tools to create new spatial forms, such as a laser. I
use a knife for folding and carving metal sheets.
My sources of inspiration are
Nature,
African forms and
modern Art and Architecture.
