BIRDIE WENDELBOE - DESIGNER
About By Birdie
long background in economics, as well as marketing, interior design and product development - combined with a remarkable ability to visualize and take in impressions from the environment - Birdie seeks and finds inspiration everywhere. From the urban environment in New York City to the architecture of ancient times, the raw power and beauty of nature, her home city of Aalborg, Nordkraft and The Limfjord Canal, and from trips all over the world. This is evident, not just in the products where each piece of jewelry or scarf is created with a specific thought, feeling or story, but also in Birdies own home and garden where the creative interior decorating includes Italian pottery, Kelim rugs and classic Danish design that all melts together perfectly and compliment the 300-year old warehouse in which Birdie and her family live. This magic fit between dualities is clearly evident in her designs.
With love from
By Birdie continues to be a family driven company and is an exclusive brand within fine jewelry with more than 150 dealers, primarily in Scandinavia, and can be found at exclusive multi-brand jewelers and shop-in-shops.
Welcome to my world of Treasures
Birdie
The jewelry designer Birdie Wendelboe has created her very own style. The Scandinavian designs are typically based on principles of stringent minimalism and the idea that less is more. Birdie goes in the opposite direction with her brand where she creates each and every piece of jewelry as small works of art - extravagant in their appearance with the generous use of gold, oxidized silver and a lavish use of pearls, gemstones and all sorts of diamonds. The result is a duality between the raw and the feminine which has its origins in the fusion between Nordic industry, wisdom of the Far East and the raw nature. The style is edgy and with an unique individual expression the brand has been well recognized throughout Scandinavia and abroad in recent years.
Birdie has a Master of Science in Economics and held an executive level position in the pharmaceutical industry. However, as the career advanced, the satisfaction in her work started to wane. As the multi cultural, multi religious, ‘luxury Bohéme’ that Birdie is at heart, she missed creative stimulation. This acknowledgement was the end of corporate life for Birdie but was also the beginning of a new and exciting adventure. With a passion to create, thoughts of her grandmother’s silver bracelets and a great deal of determination, Birdie launched her career as a selfmade jewelry designer.Witha

The Story

The raw power and the elegance join forces in By Birdie’s extravagant jewelry collections. Every piece is hand forged in gold and silver with a lavish use of diamonds – each piece of jewelry is a work of art.
The Creation of Jewellery - By Birdie
Likewise, I get inspiration from my own day to day environment – my beautiful garden, my home and Limfjorden – the canal close to where I live which offers plenty of year-round sailing, and even winter bathing. Also my office building inspires me - an old warehouse which is a former part of the Aalborghus Castle-compound at the harbour front of Aalborg. It’s an amazing place where you still sense the grace and authenticity from the timbered ornamented rennaissance walls, granite pavings and majestic old trees. Everyday I take great pleasure in overlooking the the beautiful Limfjord and harbour front from my desk – it’s an abundance of impressions, every single day.”
“The hand forged jewelry is sumptuous. The rustic mix between ample use of gold and silver, and the lavish use of exotic pearls and gemstones, are reminiscent of the contents of a classic treasure chest. The style haws a rawness to it, yet it is elegant. The metals have been hammered and treated to obtain the right structure and gleam – gold is surfacing through oxidized silver in a beautiful combination while untreated diamonds show their naked beauty. My passion is to design and create small treasures in a mix of gold and silver, with pearls, diamonds and gemstones. I search deeply within myself for the right look, and the result is a line of very personal jewelry. My style is edgy and luxurious, and the line of jewels is made for the woman who wants to wear something unique.
My jewelry is made without compromise when it comes to design and choice of materials. The source of inspiration to the jewelry comes mainly from my many travels – I like to sense a place and feel the atmosphere, the trends, the architecture, history and culture. I’m quite inspired by India where I buy gemstones from the local gem traders and where I work closely together with the local Indian jewelry workshops 6-8 weeks out of the year.
