Intro
THE POOL - Amsterdam Jewelry Collective is an autonomous team of fifteen professional makers, ranging from emerging to both mid-career and established artists. While some originally hail from other countries, all members of the collective are based in the Netherlands.
We run a shop in the historic heart of Amsterdam that features our members' works. The shop serves as an original space to view and buy pieces created by contemporary talents. Each artist designed his own display to co-create one immersive jewellery space showing all the facets of each artist’s universe. We aim to display and sell a wide range of jewelry that is unique in concept, material, and execution as well as remaining accessible and affordable to a multitude of audiences.

In the first instance, the number of members is limited to 15 creatives and corresponds to a 2-year commitment. Every member contributes to the running of the shop by being present at the shop and/or taking on social media responsibilities, bookkeeping, etc.
