About Van Gogh Minđuše

Minđuše nadahnute stablom badema u cvatu koje je slikao Van Gogh. Delikatnost grana reproducira se nježnim lancima tipa Cartier koji se poput grana ljuljaju s vjetrom. Različite nijanse različitih dragulja, od gotovo bijele do intenzivnije ružičaste, predstavljaju sjene cvijeća. Grozd cvjetanja cvjetova predstavljen je različitim reznicama. Napravljeno od 18k zlata, ružičastih dijamanata, morganita, ružičastih safira i ružičastih turmalina. Poliran i teksturiran. Izuzetno lagan i sa savršenim uklapanjem. Ovo je dolazak proljeća u obliku dragulja.

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. Another challenge was to find stones with the right weight in order to make an earring with 25 gemstons extremely light.
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.
Inspiration: The jewels in this collection were inspired by the works of artist Vincent Van Gogh. The earrings presented were inspired by the "Almond tree in blossom" canvas. The branches are represented by the currents and the different shapes and the gradient in the shades of pink represent the flowers in different phases. Just as a tree has its branches moving with the wind, the earring has balance and delicacy.
Project Duration: The project started in september 2019 in Brasilia, Brazil, and finished in January 2020 in Brasilia, Brazil.
