In 1954 her father sent her to Leicester to study textiles with the view to entering into the family textile mill in Huddersfield. In 1965 Inge enrolled at Hornsey College of Art to study jewellery, where she studied under the tutelage of Gerda Flöckinger, one of the most celebrated jewellery artists of the Post-War period. Inge continued to study jewellery at Sir John Cass College until 1971, when she began to exhibit her jewels both nationally and internationally alongside the leaders of British Jewellery Design such as John Donald and Wendy Ramshaw In the mid 1970's Inge pushed the boundaries of jewellery design with her experiments in making jewellery from tantalum. There are pieces of Ingeborg Bratman jewellery in the permanent collections of both the V&A and Science Museum in London. In an interview in 2010 just before an exhibition in Edinburgh, Inge summed up the ethos behind her jewellery designs: "I've always gone for natural forms. I love plants. I find them fascinating. I like things with movement. I like jewellery to be something you'd enjoy wearing."
