PROCESS

All DYRBERG/KERN design is managed from the design studio at the headquarters in Copenhagen, Denmark. Here a skilled team of jewellery designers sketch the new collection in order to meet the demands of the personal style of the DYRBERG/KERN brand and our customers. After a time-consuming design process, where seasonal fashion themes and seasonal colours are decided and each jewellery style is determined, the production takes place in various work-shops in Asia, where manufacturers produce the collection according to our design and quality standards.

Their materials are sourced all over the world, from Italy, China or Africa – all depending on the season. DYRBERG/KERN products are created by hand and undergo many different processes: from casting, polishing and plating of the metal base, to hand braiding of leather, to cutting, and insertion of precious stones and brilliant crystals. Finally the many different elements of one single jewellery piece are assembled. After each process, a specific quality control is performed.

Each jewellery piece goes through about 40 different processes and just as many hands before the magical moment finally happens – it meets your eye and love hopefully takes over…

As we observe their collection to be for both man and woman, which has the eyes for the little extra, and not are afraid of wearing something extraordinary. From Dyrberg/Kerns own presentation we have been rewriting their own words:

"Eranthe" necklaces with facet cut crystals - Dyrberg/Kern

It is in the power of every woman (and man) to create her or his own story – their own myth… That woman or man could be you!”

"Gnyneth" rings made with Swarovski Elements

“Shine your magic. Awe them.
Be enchanting. Charm.
Capture the magic of the moment.
Be dazzling and stay the centre of attention.
It is so simple, yet it is not.
Create your own Myth.
Be Mythical.

Be you”.

We are looking forward to enjoy Dyrberg Kern´s exclusive line in even more shops in France and all over Europe.
