Autorenporträt
Classical goldsmith's training, including a master craftsperson's diploma, was not enough for Elisabeth Holder (b. 1950). She graduated with a diploma in jewelry and design from the University of Applied Sciences in Du]sseldorf and also a master's degree from the Royal College of Art in London. Her time as a freelance jewelry designer in London was by then bound to teaching assignments and lectureships, the last being at the Royal College of Art. After her appointment as a professor of jewelry design at the Design Faculty of Du]sseldorf University of Applied Sciences, her focus shifted to teaching and research. She gave up her teaching posts in 2017 and lives and works in Erkrath, near Du]sseldorf.
