A conversation with Saskia Govaerts, one of the female founders of the Antwerp based jewellery label Studio Collect, about running a label as a team, working with retailers and more.
After graduating from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Hermien, Saskia, Magaly and Hannah decided to join forces and founded Studio Collect in 2013. A shared passion and vision for jewellery design led to their collaboration. Characterised by clean aesthetics and functional form, Studio Collect shapes contemporary jewellery for everyday wear, satisfying both practical and poetic needs. Their jewellery is carefully crafted by hand in their studio in Antwerp. Since launching their label, Studio Collect has continually refined, perfected and pushed the boundaries of its jewellery making.
