Czech-born Danish goldsmith (born 1939)
Helga Exner née Menzel (born 1939) is a Czech-born Danish goldsmith who is recognized as one of Denmark's most significant contemporary jewellery designers. From the age of 16, she was trained by Herbert Seufert in Bad Godesberg, Germany, where she met her future husband, the Danish goldsmith Bent Exner. After they married in 1961, the couple established a workshop near Randers, working together until 1983. Since they separated, she has produced jewellery in her own studio holding a number of solo exhibitions in the late 1980s and 1990s.[1][2][3]
