Lise Aagaard

Being from a family of jewellers I have had the lifelong privilege of being immersed in a constant learning environment of art, form, and material. Always facing the possibilities and boundaries of innovation from a professional point-of-view. I can honestly say that I am inspired by anything and everything. Diversity ignites my curiosity in life as well as in the worlds of metal, precious stones, pearls, amber and glass. I am deeply grateful for having had the opportunity to touch people from all over the world through my work.

As she speaks, Lise Aagaard reminds you of the glass beads she is so committed to creating. Like them, she is vibrant, playful, lively and profound. And, like glass, no-one can force Lise to do anything she doesn't want to do. Lise is motivated by the desire to create. This applies regardless of whether she's running the Trollbeads company or designing the Trollbeads themselves, which are now produced in their thousands and sold across the world.
