Muizenberg, Cape Town, South Africa
In my 14 years being a goldsmith I have dedicated myself in specializing in all areas of a true master goldsmith. A Goldsmith does not solely cover the manual methods of filing, soldering, sawing, forging, casting, and polishing with microscopic precision, but rather the design and conceptualisation of an inspiring and unique piece of art! I qualified as a Goldsmith in 2001 in Germany. Then in 2004 I finished the Master school for Gold-and Silversmithing in Munich. Afterwards I went to Namibia where I worked as the workshop manager for a very popular jeweller in Windhoek. I was teaching apprentices, designing and manufacturing unique jewellery. I had the opportunity to learn more about natural material and could develop my skills and craft. After 8 years I moved to Cape Town in South Africa and started Cullie'r in 2012.
