Weddings and wedders

This is a collection of wedding rings we developed a little while back. The designs are simple, and can be elaborated with stones and different textures of surfaces.


All of these can be made to size and in whichever metal the to-be-weds wish.



We're working on a new range of wedders and engagement rings at the moment.


These wedders can all be ordered directly with us.






Please contact us on linelindegaard@yahoo.com for further details.

The Big Blue


Did we tell you we like big rings? This beautiful piece is a blue quartz set in 9ct rose gold.


It's a chunky ring, but the band is carved out slightly so it's comfortable to wear. The setting shows off as much of the stone as possible, but is sturdy and strong.

Black beetle ring


This is a similar design to a ring we blogged about earlier. It's sterling silver and black onyx. The band is made from four identical bands and the setting is a lovely dome shape that works really well with the unusual cut of the stone.

More new pieces

This necklace was inspired by a Danish lamp. The half dome 'lamp shades' sit on top of red coral beads. They are threaded onto handmade 'segment chain' (we just made that up).

A very fashion forward friend of mine told me that this season is all about mustard... We must be ahead of our time as Arni bought these mokite beads months ago. The earrings, you will have seen before, but this photo really shows off the colour of the stones.

Dea's Ring


I was commissioned by Dea to make this in 9ct rose gold. I had earlier produced one very similar but in sterling silver. The diameter of the dome is approximately 30mm - like a 20 cent piece. This design inspired by 70s Scandinavian jewellery.

Tipi's bracelet


Here's a bracelet I made for my sister. It is made in sterling silver with two curved 5mm round wires that taper at the ends , one slightly longer than the other, and two 14mm balls. One of the balls make up the catch which consists of 2 half-domes each containing powerful rare earth magnets.


Take care at the dinner table when wearing this bracelet as the magnets will pick up the cutlery!!

The Turquoise Ring


I made this silver ring in wax. The webbing on this chinese turquoise are so bold, the stone itself is just beautiful. Thanks for the stone Belinda!

Arni's earrings


Arni came up with this earring design for the recent 'Open Studio' at the Nicholas Building in Melbourne. He does not have a studio there, but Ellinor was keen to have him as part of the event in studio 508.

Two pairs have sold, so he'll have to get busy and make some more, because he has been asked by Raymond de Swart at Black Finch to stock them with a small range. Exciting!

The earrings are made with Sterling Silver, red coral, aventurine and mookite.

For mum

This particular ring is a re-modelling project Arni did for my mother. It is a combination of her and my dad's wedding-bands plus a classic eternity ring. The yellow gold band set with the 8 diamonds spins inside the squarish white gold band.


We made this together for a recent birthday. The catch is gold-plated 9 karat gold with rare earth magnets and the black onyx beads are strung on black silk.

Lindegaard - a one-woman and one-man show

Arni amazonite
Lindegaard jewellery is not a one-woman show. Actually it is a one-woman and one-man show. Arni is the person who encouraged me to experiment with jewellery design. He's got many years of experience and is a real gold-smith.


At times we collaborate, and sometimes, such as with these pieces, Arni lets his imagination and skill run wild.



These rings were created using a variety of semi-precious stones and sterling silver.

'What Came First?' Exhibition in Copenhagen

I took my work with me to Denmark after the Graduate Show for a small window exhibition at Iron Inc. Gallery in Northern Copenhagen. It was so wonderful of Mari Keto to accept my work and let me have a little show for family and friends.

Straight from the airport to gallery to set up




Opening Night


Mari and Nicolai, Arni and I



Pictures from the Exhibition

I'm really holding on to that champagne!
I loved my time at NMIT. Studying jewellery was one of the best things I ever did.

Yes, there were other people at the exhibition, not just me.





Retrospective Seven

This was my 'Product Range'. A series of 6 Sterling Silver pendants - 2 with acrylic inserts on Silk with glass beads. 2 with felt beads on ribbon, 2 with ebony and gold and silver leaf on leather.
