Tina Engell

Tina Engell is an established goldsmith based in the west country of England from where she designs and makes precious jewellery by hand.

Having completed her four year apprenticeship as a goldsmith at Ole Lynggaard, Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1988 she came to London to study at the Royal College of Art where she graduated with a MA in jewellery design in 1992.

She received the Craft Council’s setting up grant in 1992 and has since supplied many shops and galleries in Europe with her range of jewellery. Working with her existing collection she constantly updates and adds to her range of designs.

Her Danish background informs her work, the strength of which is its simplicity, boldness and individuality allowing the stones to dominate. Each stone, colour and cut are unique in all the rings, earrings and bracelets.
