Cathérine Hostekint is a goldsmith and art historian, working between Italy and Belgium.
As an artist she doesn’t just create jewellery; she weaves stories and emotions into each piece.
Drawing inspiration from ancient cultures and contemporary art and music,
Hostekint’s latest collections are like a poetic journey through the vibrant Italian vibes of the 80s and 90s. This connection to Italy isn’t coincidental; it’s deeply personal for the designer.
Her inspiration came during her time in Rome, and now, Florence has become the place where life and collections intertwine.
Her references come not only from her passion for art and music, but also from her love for archeology and literature. Artists like Cy Twombly and Claudio Parmigianni inspire her deeply, because they are using the the power of memory and shared history in a contemporary context.
Concepts that Cathérine also wants to bring in her jewellery.
What sets Hostekint apart is its unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and quality. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted and unique. The brand doesn’t chase trends; it aspires to create timeless and iconic pieces, like miniature works of art.
Hostekint especially creates jewellery for the aesthetic, thoughtful and independent wearer.
