As part of the celebrations of Hemmerle’s 125-year anniversary, the company’s Director Christian Hemmerle granted a series of talks across London, sharing the wisdom he has gleaned from running a family business, and continuing to innovate – while many believe in the common misconception that ‘everything in jewellery has been done before’.

The first event took place at the exclusive Arts Club in Mayfair, and was hosted by Vivienne Becker, whereas the second talk was led by Joanna Hardy at Masterpiece London 2018. During these discussions, Christian examined a variety of topics, and shed light on how one of the most revered modern day jewellery houses functions and develops.

Christian also remarked is that one should not take life too seriously and be open to doing something new, something different. Add to this some bravery and an ability to take risks, and you have a working formula for success in any industry.
