    Lily Bergner and Elisabeth Schmidt were looking for a material that would give their fashion collection a special component. So the production of jewelry from concrete began as an experiment and then quickly became the focus of their design process. The material itself shows them limits and new possibilities at the same time. Contrary to the cliché - concrete is cold, hard and heavy, they present it in a delicate, smooth and light way. Their jewelry breathes and changes with the person who wears it. The fascinating geometry of things is a recurring element in their work and has become the formal principle in every collection.

    Who are you?
    we are bergnerschmidt. Two designers from Berlin who have been creating jewelry from concrete since 2009. Lily Bergner and Elisabeth Schmidt .

    What motivated you to become a designer?
    We studied fashion design together at the HTW Berlin and quickly realized that we had really good ideas together. That shouldn't just end after graduation, because we quickly founded our label bergnerschmidt

    What inspires you?
    Clearly, the Bauhaus and its design principles.

    How did you feel when you held your first finished product in your hands?
    Applying concrete to the body in the form of jewelry began as an experiment for us. At first, the pieces were massive, heavy and complex to produce. We then adapted the mixture and the additives of the concrete so that we could work on a smaller scale and produce mini series. During this time, we were regularly very excited and proud of ourselves.
