About
Bergsøe: Where Stories Are Worn, Not Told
At Bergsøe, every piece of jewellery is more than just an accessory—it’s a chapter of a story, a symbol of something meaningful, a reflection of who you are. Founded by Josephine Bergsøe in 1989, our brand has always been driven by a passion for creating one-of-a-kind, handcrafted pieces that speak to the heart. Josephine designs every piece herself, infusing each design with her vision, love for the craft, and a deep commitment to making jewellery that holds a personal connection to its wearer.
The Story Behind Every Piece
What makes Bergsøe truly special is that every piece of jewellery is unique. No two pieces are the same - each one is a singular creation, handcrafted in our Copenhagen workshop by a team of jewelers who share Josephine’s dedication to craftsmanship and detail. Whether it’s a delicate ring, a bold necklace, or a timeless bracelet, every design is made with the intention of becoming a part of your story.
For Josephine, designing jewellery is not just about aesthetics - it’s about creating pieces that resonate with the experiences, emotions, and milestones of life. Whether it’s a gift to mark a special occasion, a personal treasure to hold onto forever, or a symbol of an unforgettable moment, we design jewellery that tells the stories of those who wear it.
Crafted by Hand, Made with Heart
We are a small but dedicated team of six skilled jewelers who work closely with Josephine to bring her designs to life. From the first sketch to the final polish, each step of the process takes place in our Copenhagen workshop, where the tradition of handcrafting jewellery is alive and well. Every curve, every detail, every stone is carefully chosen, ensuring that each piece is not just a piece of jewellery, but a work of art that holds meaning and emotion.
A Unique Store, A Unique Experience
Our story unfolds not only in our workshop but also in our store - located in one of the historical pavilions surrounding the beautiful Rosenborg Castle in central Copenhagen. It’s here that we invite you to experience the magic of Bergsøe jewellery firsthand. In this intimate setting, you can explore our exclusive jewellery, hear the stories behind each design, and even work with us to create a bespoked piece of jewellery that tells your story.
Where Jewellery Meets Artistic Exploration
Over the years, Josephine’s jewellery has graced prestigious galleries and museums from New York to Berlin, captivating art lovers and figures like the Danish Royal Family, Halle Berry, and Meryl Streep. For Josephine, the greatest honour lies not in accolades, but in the creative process itself. Like designing art exhibitions, each piece of jewellery is a challenge—a chance to explore, experiment, and express a story or sensation in a completely unique way. This process is both liberating and inspiring, often revealing new directions and deeper insights into her jewellery universe.
Ethical Sourcing & Responsible Materials
At Bergsøe, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our jewellery is crafted with care, not only for the wearer but also for the world we live in. As we create pieces that are meant to last a lifetime, we are equally committed to ensuring that our processes and materials are as responsible and sustainable as possible.
We meticulously source each material, partnering with suppliers who share our commitment to environmental and social responsibility. Our metals and precious materials are recycled, and our gemstones are ethically sourced. We make it a priority to know and visit our suppliers, ensuring that all practices align with our ethical standards
