Lena Skadegard

Raw-Stone Jewelry Between New York and Denmark

Lena Skadegard was born in New Jersey to a Danish father and a mother of Kashmiri descent, and grew up with an interest in Indian astrology and in jewelry as a talisman. She designs around the natural character of raw stones, pearls, and fossils, layering them into bold, colorful strands. Each piece is meant to evoke a particular place or landscape, and the collection is handcrafted.
