About
Composed intuitively, finished by hand.
henmeide® began in 2019 in Singapore with a desire to make jewelry that could be worn without ceremony. Pieces meant to be lived in, not saved for later. Working closely with materials as they are, henmeide® is a making practice shaped by attention, judgement, and use.
The practice
How the work begins
The work begins with materials. Stones and metals are not chosen to fit a template, and no drawings are made in advance. Each piece takes shape through handling, adjustment, and design sense, guided by a feeling or mood present in that moment. Variations in the material set the pace, inform proportion, and lead the final form. Pieces are released once they feel complete.
Materials
Material Intelligence
henmeide® approaches materials with close attention. Variations in colour, structure, and surface are read and responded to rather than corrected. Forms are kept deliberate, without unnecessary dangling or ornament. Detail appears only where it supports wear and balance.
