My assignment was to design and create the Top Lot Award for 2018. It was a great success and we have continued the collaboration until 2020, were the company were closed down for because of the corona pandemic.

My inspiration for the Top Lot Award was an iris which is a symbol of hope and wisdom in many countries.

I have created a flower with mink in focus. Besides the mink I have added silk and feathers to the flower. I have used my pressing moulds to create structure in the mink and the rest of the petals are shaped with hand tools. The feathers are added to create a color contrast in the design.

In the end of 2019 the well-known danish designer Ole Yde opened his first interior shop, Ca’d’Oro, in Copenhagen.

In the end of 2019 the well-known danish designer Ole Yde opened his first interior shop, Ca’d’Oro, in Copenhagen. The shop offers everything from luxurious fragrances, specially selected antiques, delicate jewelry or handmade silk flowers for the home. Ole Yde also creates his own smaller designs for the shop as the Christmas ballerinas for the tree.

In 2019 I was asked if I would like to create some silk flowers for the home. I had not earlier made flowers as interior items. But I thought it was a good idea and it has been an ongoing collaboration since the first tulip and rose entered the shop. Besides my flowers I have also created different other accessories as beaded broaches, headpieces etc for the shop.

Year 2020

This project was an artistic collaboration of the two brands. The series of images that we made should work as inspiration as well as a show off and create attention.

I have never created accessories for shoes before. So it was fun to have in mind that the accessories should be able to work in a new way.

Among the accessories that can be used for shoe as well as a broach or in the hair are: The little hand embodied bird, the beaded leaves and the colorful beetles.

Some of the pictures also include wire animals and insects. They are also all created by me but were originally made for my Christmas table, in Royal Copenhagen in 2018.

The silk flowers on the pictures were also specially made for the photos, but only to create an artistic feeling as the artificial flowers will not be able to withstand the Danish weather.

In the early spring of 2019 I was contacted by the jewelry company PANDORA. They were to create a showroom for autumn/winter 2019 and they wanted me to be a part of it.

The name of the installation was “Rebelle in Wonderland”. A magical world of nature, colors and of cause jewelry.

I was helping to create a forest floor full of pressed silk leaves in varied colors. More than 250 silk leaves were cut out by hand and pressed one by one.

Take a look at the pictures to see some of the magic.

“My Christmas is not tied to traditions. We have always traveled a lot in my family, so for me Christmas does not look a certain way” says Effi Pingel, who has released her inner child and created a Christmas table buzzing with life, magic and poetry.

Despite the season, a promise of spring and new beginnings is presented with the table setting. Nature is brought in, with branches to support Effi’s handmade flowers, bumblebees, butterflies, goldsmiths and beetles. All together adding a feeling of a cosy and relaxed Christmas.

The unique fauna consists of small handmade sculptures, neatly made from silk, beads and fur. The animals are discovered among branches, berries and pinetrees.
