As a bonus, Åsa will demonstrate her own stone-setting method, which uses a thin sheet to create bold effects.

About Åsa Lockner
Born in 1973 in Solna, Sweden, and educated at Konstfack (MFA 1999), Åsa Lockner creates jewelry exploring transformation—objects linked to history and the present. Her work reflects on fragility, permanence, and nature’s relentless cycles. Represented in Nationalmuseum, Röhsska, and Rian Designmuseum, she exhibits internationally. Since 2016, she has divided her time between her jewelry practice and directing Mellösaverken, a place for living, artistic creation, and artist residencies.
