Our workshop in Amsterdam

To us, 'Handmade in Amsterdam' is more than just a catchy slogan. Our team is working day after day creating your Pig & Hen goods: all by hand, all with the greatest care and eye for detail, all here in Amsterdam. Besides our trademark nautical rope and stainless-steel closures, it’s mainly laughter, good music and about ten pairs of skilled hands, with very diverse backgrounds, that are the main tools and materials we create our products with.

“It’s a group of friends, that’s what working here feels like,” says production manager Jens. It’s an atmosphere that’s pretty unique.”

Idea

Each Pig & Hen bracelet, ring or necklace begins with a unique idea, where our designers draw inspiration from Amsterdam’s nautical heritage. We carefully select the materials and create original designs that reflect both style and durability.

Handcrafting

Our skilled artisans bring each design to life by meticulously handcrafting every bracelet in our Amsterdam workshop. This process ensures that every piece receives the attention and detail it deserves, making each bracelet truly one-of-a-kind.

Quality check

Every Pig & Hen bracelet undergoes a thorough quality check to meet our high standards. We carefully inspect each piece to ensure it reflects the craftsmanship and durability that define our brand, so our customers can wear it with pride and confidence.

Finishing

In the finishing stage, the bracelet is polished, carefully packaged, and made ready for its journey to the customer. We add the final touches to ensure it arrives in perfect condition, reflecting the care and craftsmanship behind every Pig & Hen piece.
