kinetic jewellery
enhances the design of jewelry by a fourth dimension: movement.
Individual elements can rotate, be turned or can swing, inspired by the kinetic energy of the body.
Due to the many years of working for and assisting Friedrich Becker, the inventor of kinetic jewellery, the fascination of this extraordinary form of jewellery took hold of Michael Berger too.
