Josef Koppmann

About Josef Koppmann

Josef Koppmann’s practice resides at the crossroads of European avant garde heritage and contemporary studio goldsmithing. Trained at the Arts and Crafts College in Vienna, Josef brings an elite continental sensibility to his London gallery at the Oxo Tower. Rejecting transient design trends, his philosophy is anchored in permanence, meticulous handcraft, and the preservation of the maker’s mark. Every artifact is executed entirely by hand, celebrating subtle surface textures and irregularities that signify authentic origin. His resulting work is highly sought after by collectors who value sculptural integrity and jewellery conceived to evolve alongside the wearer. n Maine.

Meet Josef

Josef’s work explores the balance between bold geometric form and architectural Brutalism. Heavily textured high-karat gold is set against sterling silver surfaces, creating a distinct, light catching landscape. These structured designs are highlighted by carefully selected gemstones that dictate the visual rhythm of each piece. Conceived as small scale wearable sculptures rather than simple ornaments, these minimalist pieces beautifully bridge the gap between fine art and contemporary jewellery.
