Jewellery is a feeling
- • Jytte opened her studio in 1975
- • She has participated in more than 70 exhibitions worldwide
- • Every year she publishes a Winter Letter portraying her inspiration and new pieces
Jytte Kløve is one of Denmark’s leading jewellery artists with a long and outstanding career. Her idiom is predominantly sculptural but always functional, taking inspiration from nature as she walks along the river through the wood daily to and from work. Political events and architecture also influence her work; for instance, you can see the Opera House in Sydney by Danish architect Jørn Utzon in her Boat Bracelet. Her studio lies in Lyngby's charming city, half an hour outside Copenhagen. A city for which she designed the Crown Christmas ornaments 26 years ago. Each year in December, the crowns still decorate the streets of Lyngby. Jytte has received numerous awards and accolades throughout her career, and she is represented at Designmuseum Denmark, The Museum of Koldinghus, The Danish Art Foundation and in private collections.

TAK
