Ebbe Weiss-Weingart (b. 1923) is one of the pioneers of
international studio jewellery. For over seventy years she has
enriched the contemporary jewellery scene with her diverse works.
Her inception in the 1950s and 1960s with structured surfaces and
galvanised sculptured pieces will never be forgotten. Alongside
figurative motifs - in particular, her portrayals of humans and
animals - she also created pieces with an ironic and quirky touch.
In her last phase of creativity, which began in the 1990s, she had
a penchant for working with jewellery made from Chinese jade
reliefs. Around 200 illustrations of these jewellery objects
documents her award-winning work, and along with previously
unpublished photographic material, expands on her hitherto unknown
accomplishments. Includes, in full, her speech on the occasion of
receiving the Gesellschaft fur Goldschmiedekunst's Ring of Honour,
which gives an insight into Ebbe Weiss-Weingart's philosophy and
working processes.
