As a traditional goldsmith with over 20 years of experience, Jasmin’s passion
for jewellery design never faded. In Jasmin´s words: As a child I always wanted
to become a true renaissance man or, in my case, woman. I dreamed of being a
painter, sculptor and innovator living a life solving the mysteries of the world
like Leonardo da Vinci or Michelangelo. So I became a goldsmith, learning the
ancient art of working with precious metals and intriguing gemstones. During my
years in the jewellery business I had the wonderful opportunity to work with
renowned jewellery artists, like Wendy Ramshaw, Jacqueline Mina and others to
design high-end collections and to make jewellery in every metal I could
possibly lay my hands on (palladium and niobium are still amongst my
favourites). Ultimately, I discovered my passion for teaching. Through my
association with one of the most prestigious jewellery schools in the world
(GIA) I have inspired hundreds of students in such far-flung locations as
Thailand, Italy and California. With my many classes, I have combined the
intricacies of jewellery design with the elements of technology, using the
latest CAD/CAM developments, whilst sharing both my joy and undiminished
affection for an industry that I have been involved with for all my working
life. Today, I still do what I love. I run my own jewellery business, Jaqc
Jewellery and Jaqc Jewellery Academy, offer design consultancy, and illustrate
jewellery for a variety of companies. Now I want to help you realise your
creative ambitions, by sharing my skills and show you how to design, manufacture
and illustrate amazing jewellery.
