Elegant Icelandic Jewellery Renowned designer Hendrikka Waage presents jewellery, art collections
H
endrikka Waage has designed an exquisite collection of rings, earrings and necklaces. Indeed, the Baron Collection encompasses intricate Sterling silver and yellow gold lattice detailing, with the subtle colours of stones, which add a defined elegance to the pieces. Her jewellery is both glamourous and affordable, designed for the sophisticated, elegant, and modern woman. The Baron Collection was inspired by a family heirloom, a carafe that has been handed down through many generations of the Waage family. Its history is fascinating as it was once owned by the mysterious entrepreneur and musician Baron Charles Francois Xavier Gauldree Boilleau, who lived in Iceland at the turn of the 1800s. Like the Baron himself, the collection conveys an air of mystery and elegance.
Taking inspiration from the world
Being Icelandic, born and raised in Reykjavik, Hendrikka is used to the natural beauty of the strong, beautiful and spiritual environment of Iceland. But her work and style are not limited to Iceland as her jewellery designs are influenced by some of the countries where she has lived and worked, including Russia, Japan and the USA. Hendrikka currently spends her time between Iceland and England. She loves the English countryside and the charm of London, which is now her home. “England is home for me, it’s where I live, but Iceland is always in my heart. I am very patriotic,” said Hendrikka.
