"Designing the stone" is the motto at family-run jeweller Atelier Munsteiner. Born into a family of gem-cutters, Bernd Munsteiner studied at the arts and crafts school in Pforzheim and his stone-cutting skills have earned him the moniker "the Picasso of gems" among his industry peers. He was the first contemporary jewellery artist to work with crystals - cutting and polishing them into sculptural geometric shapes set in gold or platinum. Today, Bernd runs Atelier Munsteiner along with his son Tom and daughter-in-law Jutta, who each bring their own set of fine jewellery skills to the company.
