Ute Decker
Described as wearable sculptures, Ute Decker's un
ique and limited edition creations are minimalist y
et confidently sculptural.
One of the first jewelers to champion
Fair-trade gold, she selects only the finest sustai
nable materials to hand-craft
her unique pieces of jewelry.
Ute's work is suggestive of an architectural language
playing with volume, space and movement. Her scu
lptures exude a
seemingly effortless serenity and some can be a scu
lpture, ring or a pendant at the same time.
Recently featured as one of the UK's top 10 jeweler
s, her work has been shown in more than 50 exhibiti
ons across the globe,
and she has been published in a wide selection of art,
fashion, design, craft, luxury and architecture
publications.
