Amsterdam: Hans Appenzeller

In the heart of Amsterdam, on a side street off the Rokin, one of the Netherlands most renowned jewelry designers, Hans Appenzeller, keeps a collection of modern jewelry that represents a career spanning over 3 decades. Hans annually presents new collections of personally designed gold, silver, stainless steel, and aluminum jewelry that is beautiful, yet understated, and often architectural. Each season, for 30 years, he has designed a unique and varied collection of jewelry, concentrating not only on adornment for the body, but pieces for living and working spaces as well. I especially like the Coromandel Stips (One by One) and the V-Tec Alpha watch.
