About

Esther Heite is a designer with a focus on objects that interact with human body. Her process-based approach combines technique, experiment and material studies and leads to innovative compositions. She creates jewellery collections and art pieces in her own particular manner ranging from the poetic to rather clear and distinctive design. Her works, mainly made of metal, are distinguished by their technical finesse and the resulting aesthetic expression.

Technique

Since my graduation project I work mainly with stainless steel and fine welding. Rather than trying to disguise the welding dots, they have become a central element of my jewellery making.

Sustainability

To achieve true sustainability we need to focus on developing products that are long-lasting. To ensure this, I attach great importance to high quality processing of best materials and it’s my personal approach to create timeless but unique jewellery that outlasts current trends. The triad of bold forms, raw material and brilliant details is the particular hallmark and central theme of esther heite jewellery & object.
