I have two mothertongues: French and Danish. I was born and raised in Paris. After I graduated from ESSEC Business School with a Master in marketing for luxury brands I have developed my skills and knowledge in the luxury fashion industry in the UK and in Italy. I worked for established fashion houses such as Dolce&Gabbana in Milan. My passion for gemstones and craftsmanship is the reason why I decided in 2013 to enroll in multiple courses at the Institute National de Gemmologie in Paris and after at the Haute Ecole de Joaillerie de Paris in order to become a jewelry specialist and designer. I have a deep understanding of the production process, from drawings to prototypes, from the concept to the actual wearable jewelry piece. I know how to sketch, to complete technical drawings, and to follow all the production steps. Thanks to my experience and education, I am a great project manager and able to work well with the various parties involved in the production of a jewelry collection. After 10 years of being self employed as a jewelry designer and consultant, I would like to share my skills and develop them within a team in a design studio. To me, it is the best way to boost my creativity and embellish masculine and feminine silhouettes. I can work from home or in an office. I am flexible with contract terms.
Special projects/ Jewelry design: sketches, technical drawings, daily communication with the manufacture for the production of samples.

Delphine was a great professional and human being. She helped me and the company to achieve the objective we had in the digital strategy and brand visibility. All the team loved working with her. We were very sad when she left. If you need any help I’m happy to support.
