I make my jewelry with the utmost care, by hand and with a clear conscience. As a certified member of GYR Edelmetalle AG, I use recycled gold, also known as Oekogold. In this way, my customers and I protect the environment and natural resources. All pieces of jewelry are unique and are created according to individual design.

In addition to my jewelry and accessories, I offer space for works by other artists in my studio. Currently, Esther V. Rausch-Frey, Artiste Architecte, is exhibiting some paintings from her collection Ombres Blanches d'Architectures, de Plantes et de Fruits. Come by during my opening hours.
About me
I was born in Zurich and grew up in Sudan and on Lake Zurich. I was interested in art and design from an early age. After four years of training in Küsnacht, I obtained my federal goldsmith diploma in 1980. A year later I moved to Southern California, where I worked for Bosshard/JFA Designs in Costa Mesa and Silverhorn in Santa Barbara as a designer and workshop manager. In 1993, I started my own studio in Santa Barbara. In the fall of 2010, I moved back to Küsnacht, where I took over my master's goldsmith studio. I have won seven design awards for my work. My art pieces have been exhibited in museums such as the 'Bowers Museum' in Santa Ana, California.
I design and create unique pieces such as engagement and wedding rings to customer specifications. By hand and with the best materials. The transformation of your idea into a personal, handmade piece of jewelry or accessory begins with the design on paper. I draw by hand. Be it for the modification or reuse of an existing piece or for the production of a new piece. I pay attention to the highest quality of materials and realization. Most of the work is done by me. For highly specialized tasks, I work together with competent partners from long-standing relationships.
