Made slowly,
by one pair of hands.
My name is Mira Vermeer. I have been making jewelry, by hand, in the same atelier in Antwerp, since 1992. I trained for nine years before I made my first sellable piece.
Today the atelier is small — three people, including me. We make about 240 pieces a year, by hand, one at a time. We have never grown larger. We have never wanted to.
