Sangeun Kim

December 9, 2008

I recently attended Brilliantly Birmingham, a showcase of established and up and coming jewellery makers. The Flux exhibition is always one of my favourites and is usually hosted by Birmingham City University School of Jewellery. Amongst the fabulous works by Sally Collins and adventurous soul Karen Bartlet I discovered another little gem, Sangeun Kim.

Sangeun’s collection is inspired by architectural structures and in particular, the negative and unused spaces which surround them. Held in place by a magnetic back plate, the broaches jut out as bold and brave statement pieces.

Her full collection consists of geometric spatial neck pieces and brooches in precious metals with a hint of elegant enamel. From £60.

You can view and purchase the collection at Open Studios at Design Space, Unit 2, 25-33 Hylton Street, Birmingham, B18 6HJ

13th December – 20th December, 10am – 4pm
