About Waves گردنبند

«امواج» گردنبندی است ساخته‌شده از نقره استرلینگ بازیافتی. فرم این گردنبند حرکت آب و موهای فرفری را تقلید می‌کند. سطح مات آن با تکنیک مات‌کاری سوزنی ایجاد شده و شبیه جیر است. قطعه اصلی برای ریخته‌گری و قالب‌سازی به‌صورت دستی و با خم کردن ورقه‌های موم گرم با استفاده از ابزارهای شکل‌دهنده فلزی شکل گرفته است. هر عنصر این گردنبند در مرکز خود یک موج بزرگ‌تر دارد که با امواج کوچک‌تر احاطه شده تا حرکتی طبیعی و طراحی‌ای متعادل ایجاد شود. این گردنبند در عین شکوهمند بودن، سبک و راحت برای پوشیدن است. نقره آبکاری نشده و تولید آن در فنلاند انجام می‌شود.

The necklaces matt surface is suede like but made from silver. The original piece for casting and mold making has been hand made by bending warm wax sheet with form giving irons.

Design Challenge
The hardest part of the design process was to make something as balanced and at the same time ambitiously beautiful for women to wear. Fitting is always important and I has to come naturally.
Research
Waves project started with my admiration to women of all kinds. I see women as unique individuals who deserve more encouragement for themselves. It should be easy to love yourself everyday no matter what. First models were made from reindeer suede. Then the experimental design process moved onwards to wax sheets. I formed wax with heat and different shaped jewelry making irons and hand tools. The final product has the light feeling and the looks of suede even though it is made from silver. Waves necklace has grown in to a jewelry set with bracelet, two different sized pendants and earrings.
Inspiration
Waves necklace is based on Botticellis painting The birth od Venus. Waves is a praise to womanhood in all of its forms. The jewelry design reflects waves of water and hair and the curves of a woman.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2017 and the first necklace was finished in September 2018 in Sonkajarvi, Finland.
Operation Flow
Necklace is massive and very festive but still very light for its looks. Waves finishes the red carpet look for everyone who wears it. The Waves necklaces length can be adjusted to fit different sized women. Each piece adds the length approximately 2 cm.
