The Design

About Irises Ring

Irises is 'n dubbele ring geïnspireer deur 'n skildery van Vincent van Gogh. Die skildery toon blou blomme met lang, swaardvormige blare. In die ring word die blomme voorgestel deur blousaffier en deur London- en hemeltopaas, terwyl gebeeldhoude goud die blare in beweging vorm. Die ring word met die hand vervaardig uit 18 karaat goud, met 'n matte afwerking en kloue-vatting. Die stuk is lig en gemaklik om te dra. Die doel is om die kleure en vorme van die natuur en skilderkuns in 'n draagbare voorwerp saam te bring.

Design Challenge: During the search for the idealized materials, some types of gemstones were not located and some cut formats were unavailable. The acquisition of gemstones in other formats and types was carried out and a new design was performed adapting to the materials found.
Research: After extensive research on Van Gogh's paintings (there are almost 2000 works), the painting was chosen that would be the inspiration for the design. Then research was carried out on the painted tree (understanding of what the painter saw to be inspired). Realized the ideal design of the piece and choice of the ideal materials for execution.
