Alchemist of gold
- • Goldsmithing runs in Marleen's family
- • Romantic minimalism is the setting for her jewellery
- • She believes a diamond brings more than just monetary gain
Marleen Hengeveld’s vocation as a goldsmith is a family tradition. Her mother was a goldsmith before her and worked on jewellery as a hobby. Her grandfather, who used to be the director of what was then a technical college in Amsterdam, introduced goldsmithing to the curriculum for the first time. In her final year of high school, instead of studying for exams, Marleen spent her time making bracelets from beads or sketching. It was clear where her talents lay. Not knowing which direction to take, she took a year out attending an Arts and Crafts college. Following in her mother’s footsteps she learned her trade at the Vocational College for Goldsmiths, eventually specialising in jewellery during a History of Art degree. Her jewels are characterised by fine filigree work and intricate detailing.
