Museum Store

Don’t miss this special Museum Store Trunk Show featuring Uli Amsterdam!

Join us on Saturday, April 30 between 12:00 – 4:00 PM for a special Trunk Show featuring the work of Uli Amsterdam. Come experience all the fabulous new pieces made by Uli Rapp, brought into the museum exclusively for this event. Uli will be virtually present at 1:00 PM via live stream. She’ll be giving a short talk and visitors can ask questions about her work or specific pieces.

Uliʼs fabulous pieces are produced in Amsterdam, by hand and with love by Uli and her team. They are worn all over the world and can be found in permanent collections of international museums and private collectors. They are sold at shows and galleries in Paris, Miami, and Dubai.

Uli’s necklaces, brooches, and earrings interpret a love for antique gemstones and pearls contrasting with chunky chains. All pieces are skillfully handmade in screen print on lightweight soft materials. The combination of a contemporary artist’s tools with the hint of past splendor makes for titillating jewelry: conversation pieces for bold wearers like famous Architect Zaha Hadid, Designer Nathalie Rykiel, or Boy George.

About Uli Rapp

Uli Rapp (1974) received her Masters degree in jewelry design at the prestigious Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam. Fascinated by the Elizabethan splendor in dress decoration she translates it into wearable contemporary jewelry. Her collections have developed rapidly in a sophisticated style and use of smart materials – she invented a technique to apply medical plastic between textiles.
