Collections – Sculptural Jewellery by Nicole van der Wolf
Explore the collections of Dublin-based contemporary jewellery artist Nicole van der Wolf. Her jewellery collections explore the many ways humans interact with water. From maritime movement and kinetic forms in ShipShape, to frozen winter landscapes in Midnight Snow and joyful moments by the sea in Summer Strand, each collection reflects a different aspect of this ongoing theme.
All pieces are handmade in Nicole’s Dublin studio using precious metals and carefully selected gemstones.
