The Story
of
a Danish Girl in New York
Born in Denmark 1980, Sophie Boesen studied fine arts at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York and later at Parsons School of Design.

Her unique presentation, helps to inform and explain the work, resulting in an ongoing range of functional and decorative jewelry. A continuing dialogue that ends in an elegant production.
Sophie’s design aesthetics draws from her years of involvement in the design industry where focus is on form and function as well as beautiful shapes and contours. Sexy, sultry, dark, and mysterious undertones has been the theme of her jewelry line since its inception in 2014. Sophie specializes in custom one-of a kind pieces. Her raw and sensual esthetic reflects her unique style and each piece is designed, produced and hand made by Sophie herself.

Sophie believes in the healing powers of stones, materials and the qualities of the meaning within. To ensure sustainability and accountability from start to finish, all materials and stones are ethically sourced from reputable supply chains.

While drawing inspiration from graphic shapes and natural elements, not one piece should replicate or copy a specific shape. Each design is an idea of the familiar in a new context.
