About Alexandre Hekkers
After successfully completing law studies at the Université Libre de Bruxelles and joining the Brussels bar, Alexandre Hekkers quickly realizes the legal world is not his. He therefore decides to quit his job as an apprentice lawyer to become a jeweler.
In 2016, Alexandre began his apprenticeship in jewelry making in Brussels and Antwerp.
Two years later, he won the 14th edition of the Jewelry Awards at the Antwerp Diamond Museum (DIVA) where his creation was exhibited for several weeks.
In 2019, Alexandre Hekkers decides to settle in Antwerp and work on his first collection in order to create the eponymous brand Alexandre Hekkers
Alexandre Hekkers, it’s above all redefining classics. From the signet ring to the curb chain or the solitaire ring, the idea is to dust off the design of traditional jewelry in order to put it up to date. The shapes are studied and re-imagined in order to marry tradition and modernity.
Alexandre wants to offer timeless jewelry that will survive the ages. To do this, special attention is paid to the materials selected as well as the design of each piece of jewelry. The metals used are noble metals (18 karat gold and 925 silver) and the stones chosen are precious or semi precious.
Furthermore, Alexandre Hekkers is the idea of accessible luxury. By mixing gold and silver and working on pre-order, Alexandre prefers quality over quantity. The goal is to minimize production costs in order to be able to offer choice jewelry at an affordable price.
Finally, Alexandre Hekkers’s jewelry is open to the public. They are aimed at both men and women, of all ages and from all backgrounds.
It’s the story of a brand that could never have existed.
