Worn so closely to the body, jewellery often carries a personal and intimate meaning. Drawn focuses on representing the warmth and connection found in design, and researches the relationship between the body and an object. Taking reference from the rich history of jewellery, Drawn uses artefacts, stories, and imagery to define and design that which charms us now.
Drawn does not follow the fashion seasons and works on a project basis instead. Rather than completely creating new work every couple of months, Birgit Toke Tauka Frietman, founder of Drawn, continuously builds on her previous collections. She designs pieces that can be paired and combined to create meaningful layers that stay with you forever.
Birgit is originally from The Netherlands and moved to London in 2011 to study Jewellery Design at Central Saint Martins. The four years transformed her practice and made her truly value the importance of others in her own work. She set up Drawn in 2020 as a platform to share her personal work alongside her collaborative projects.
