Danish jewellery luminary Ole Lynggaard speaks to us about his new Cranes collection and the patience that comes with crafting perfection.
What were the circumstances that led to the new collection?
I enjoy creating animal designs and have always been fascinated with big-winged birds. Over the years, I have considered many different birds; eventually, the elegance of the crane was the natural choice for a fine jewellery collection. The decision was already made instinctively when I started a year-long process of crane experiments. I made countless number of bird sketches, moulded cranes in wax and cut them from paper. I studied crane books and documentaries to get the movements just right.
What do you find fascinating about the bird?
