Biography of Lucie Heskett-Brem
Lucie Heskett-Brem was born in Lucerne, Switzerland, and completed her
apprenticeship as a goldsmith there in 1992. She exhibits in art galleries
and is represented in Zurich, London and New York.
Lucie's specialty was inspired by a lifelong fascination with the symbolism
of chains. She loves the meditative repetition of each individual link
and the flexible connection of each to all. The chain is a powerful symbol
in every human culture, signifying the unbreakable bond of love and
marriage.
Lucie Heskett is deeply versed in the patterns and techniques used by
jewelers from the most ancient times. Using her own high carat alloys,
she makes her intricate chains entirely by hand. From the bar, through
the milling and drawing, the making of each link and the joining of them
into an exquisitely finished whole, each chain is a unique work of art.
