Michael Zobel was born in the Moroccan town of Tangier in 1942 and grew up in Barcelona. He trained and studied as a jewellery designer in Pforzheim, worked in Paris and in 1968 finally came to the city of Constance, where he settled and opened his first own shop. Here his name quickly became synonymous with exclusive and innovative jewellery design, and his renown spread far and wide. Customers around the world as well as numerous international exhibitions and awards testify to this. In 2003 he was awarded an honorary professorship (Prof. h.c.) at the Kyrgyz State University of Construction, Transportation and Architecture.
