Stefanie Verhoef is a Dutch/Danish artist and contemporary jewellery designer living and working in Amsterdam.
She was trained as a goldsmith during a technical education in Amsterdam and after that has received her BA in Fine Arts and in Education from the Academie voor Beeldende Vorming (now: Breitner Academie).
In her work, she seeks a balance between form and function, exploring the boundaries of art, jewelry, functionality, and wearability.
While combining concept with craft, she explores original and innovative contrasts, crafting pieces that are both rough-edged and delicate.
Each collection is designed with a different concept - rooted in personal experiences or fascinations - and has its own unique shape language, mostly consisting of one-of-a-kind pieces.
