About Safety Pin Ringo

Safety Pin estas ringo formita kiel plene funkcianta sekurpinglo. La ringo sidas sur tri fingroj de la portanto kaj povas ankaŭ esti uzata kiel broĉo, pendaĵo aŭ pinglo. Safety Pin estas farita el 18-karata flava oro kaj garnita per multkoloraj gemoj de 2,09 karatoj, kun totala pezo de 14,40 gramoj. Oni preparis 3D-modelon, poste presis vaksan prototipon kaj gisis ĝin en oro. La gisaĵo estis finpretigita mane kaj polurita. La gemoj estis fiksitaj en sia loko, kaj la partoj estis poste kunigitaj. La dezajno celas resti malpeza, portebla kaj ludema.

Production Technology: Developed in the 3D Matrix program for the jewellery industry based on the Rhinoceros program, a 3D model was created. After the safety pin were grown by prototyping on a 3D printer from wax, the cast was made in gold. They were processed by hand and polished with jewellery threads, for the perfect shine of the gems and showing their cut, clarity and colour. After that, precious stones were fixed into the base product and only then the parts were connected into the final figurines.
Design Challenge: The number one challenge is to combine the design of the piece with its technical side while maintaining it lightweight, wearable and ergonomic.
Research: Traditionally, jewellers have created static pieces for thousands of years. By adding movement to the jewellery I allow our pieces to come alive, inspired by the beauty of magic and nature. As a jeweller, my concept is to find ways to introduce kinetic effects and hidden secrets that are a unique joy to own.
Inspiration: Invoking the magical wonderment of childhood, the Games collection fuses the fun with the fine. With their emphasis on actual play and irreverent references each piece has the dual purpose of encouraging daydreaming and lighthearted games
Project Duration: The project started in January 2021 in London and finished in January 2022 in London. The overall process of production, improvements and quality check took about one year. These ring have never been exhibited before.
Operation Flow: A Multifunctional Safety Pin ring can be transformed in to brooch, pendant or pin. Also, it could be stylised and worn on many occasions with additional charms.
