French jewellery designer and artist Christophe Burger has designed jewellery for Lapponia since 1989. After taking a degree in English language and literature he went on to study jewellery design and goldsmithery at the Strasbourg School of Applied Arts. Burger has been making unique pieces of jewellery and objets d'art at his own studio workshop, in Colmar, France since 1977. Burger's design is a skilful combination of French avant-garde and Finnish craftsmanship. The design language of his jewellery is geometric, often highlighted using diamonds or colourful gemstones. For Christophe Burger, jewellery is a clear means of communication. This is reflected in the apt names of the pieces and their carefully contemplated design. The name of each piece and the associations it creates are an intelligent mental game for each individual. A game in which the artist challenges us to take part. A piece of jewellery conveys individualism, it is like the language of social interaction between people.
