Olivia Schlevogt was born and grew up in the small German town of Schwaebisch Gmuend, famous for its silver and jewellery industry. Her family of glass makers and jewellers greatly influenced her and in 1989 she began a four year apprenticeship in Germany.
Afterwards she worked for a local jeweller before coming to Rochester in Kent to study silversmithing and to refine her jewellery skills. After graduating Olivia stayed in England and now has her own well-established workshop in Clerkenwell, London.
Olivia specialises in fusing different precious metals together and achieves a very distinctive design throughout her jewellery. She has won many prizes for her work and exhibits internationally.
