Horsehair Jewelry Collection
Ultimately, one finds no better way to describe Inge's work than as a mixture of fine craftsmanship, organic naturalism and classic elegance. An excellent eye for design, fine metal working, stone setting, and above all, a constant demand for quality are evident throughout the collection. Each piece contains history, the culmination of work spirit and expertise, not only of the artist, but of thousands of people over hundreds of years. It is a connection to the horse, to other cultures, to other times. We invite you to experience this connection with us!
