Pauline Hagan is a self-taught British-French jewellery designer and ceramic artist who has been living in Prague since 2015.

Her creative journey began with leather jewellery under her successful brand Benu Made, known for timeless designs such as her hand earrings and Matisse leaf earrings, that reached thousands of customers worldwide. She later expanded into silversmithing, brass mobiles and ceramics - the latter earning her nominations for Czech Grand Design and Elle Decoration awards, along with numerous features in the press.

Moving fluidly between disciplines, Pauline is driven by a deep fascination with her materials, always exploring how they can be transformed and sculpted into unique, meaningful objects. Inspired by her travels as well as her Celtic and French heritage, she often plays with negative space and organic forms found in the natural world.

Strength in simplicity. The Arc collection celebrates the courageous woman, drawing on female energy as the original creative force. It is a return to beginnings, with jewellery as archetype and origin, pure in form and intention. Like the earliest adornments worn in human history, these handmade pieces are symbols of strength and protection, pared back and non-ornamental. The collection is elemental and refined, featuring matte surfaces and smooth, lightly arched lines that gracefully reflect the light..
