About Tambourine B Armband
Tambourine B is 'n armband geïnspireer deur die tamboeryn, 'n perkussie-instrument wat die ritme van musiek voltooi. Die armband bevat 'n beweegbare binneste ring wat binne-in die buitenste ring verskuif en 'n sagte klank voortbring wanneer die draer beweeg. Die presiese passing van die twee ringe maak die konstruksiemetode kompleks. Sterlingsilwer is vir die stuk gebruik. Handsketse is omgeskakel in digitale modelle en in hars gedruk, daarna gegiet, gesoldeer, gepoleer en met die hand versilwer. Die ligte en minimalistiese vorm is bedoel as 'n simbool van lewe, dans en musiek.

- Production Technology
- Bracelets in s925
The primitive sketches of bracelets were performed by hand and then inverted to Matrix gemvision software to get ProJet 3-D printed resin models. Final products get soldered and installed together and after this step, the bracelet gets polished and sanded by hand right after the Casting with s925 and the molding processes. Silver plating was the last phase had done for smoothing and polishing the surface color. - Design Challenge
- The bracelet production was the most challenging stage of the work. Since, the bracelet has a mobile part inside. Anyhow, this bracelet must be produced in 3 parts and then soldered, finally, the finishing must be made. The main challenge is to choose the 3-D printing method over the laser cut. The laser-cut is very precise and fast and the final product is very clean and accurate; Since the thickness of the bracelet lines is more than 1.5 mm, unluckily, it is beyond the power of existing devices in Iran. Thus, the ProJet 3D printing resin and metal casting method were selected for production.
- Research
- "If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in the terms of energy, frequency, and vibration," says Tesla. In Tolkien's world, Iluvatar created the Ainur, taught them music, and finally created what they played as a universe. The tambourine is an ancient instrument in the percussion family. It has small metal jingles, called zills, around it. The designer believes the percussion instruments such as the tambourine are a fascinating combination of music and dance; her goal in designing and producing this bracelet was to create a symbol as a symbol of life, dance, and music.
- Inspiration
- Just close your eyes and listen to the universe. Can you hear? The voice of the wind, the water, and nature. The world is made of music and dance, sound and motion, love and laugh. The truth is the universe is an instrument, just like a tambourine. This is perfect integrity.
The Tambourine collection is inspired by an instrument with the same name. This little musical instrument completes the rhythm of the music. Playing it feels like making music and dancing at the same time. - Project Duration
- The initial idea of the design and inspiration from the tambourine began in 2018. Researches about the instrument, simulations, and sketches continued until 2019. The production process finished in 2020. The process from idea to implementation has been done in Tehran.
- Operation Flow
- Durable for everyday use, lightweight, minimalistic, suitable for all ages and styles.
