About Van Gogh's Sunflowers Arracades

Els Girasols de Van Gogh és un parell d'arracades fetes a mà inspirades en una natura morta de girasols. Les arracades estan fabricades en or de 18 quirats i engastades amb citrins naturals i diamants grocs en muntures de tipus bisell. Diversos tons de citrí groc recreen les tonalitats del quadre. Les gemmes se superposen entre elles i creen un efecte tridimensional, similar a les capes d'una flor. Un acabat mat amb línies fines representa les fulles, mentre que un acabat polit representa les branques. La forma audaç dona al disseny un aspecte escultòric.

Unique Properties
Van Gogh’s sunflowers is considered innovative by the use of the yellow spectrum. The sunflower painting are perfectly materialized in the many yellow hues of citrines, the earring innovates by being very colorful using only shades of yellow. The gemstones overlap each other creating a 3D effect seen in flowers and their many layers. A matte finish with lines represents the leaves while a polished finish is used to represent the branches. Its bold shape and its characteristic of making layers of gemstones makes it a work of art.

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.
