The Design

About Link Ring

Link is in sulveren ring, ynspirearre troch de foarm fan in ketting. It ûntwerp bestiet út ferbûne ringen dy't de drager tafoegje of fuorthelje kin, sadat de ring hieltyd in nije foarm oannimme kin. De komplekse ringen yn it midden foarmje in kontrast mei de minimalistyske sulveren basis, wêrmei't in lykwicht ûntstiet tusken oarder en wanoarder. It uterlik fan de ring feroaret ôfhinklik fan de hoeke wêrút men it besjocht. Snije, foarmjaan en lasse binne hielendal mei de hân útfierd. De ketting ferwiist nei ienheid en nei de bân tusken minsken en natuer.

Tags: Jewelry, Silver, Handmade, Ring, Link
Production Technology: The processes of cutting, forming and welding were completely done by hand.
Design Challenge: Link has been designed and made in a way that the user is able to either add or remove the number of hoops.
Research: In the design of this ring, the dynamism of form, understanding of human-nature relationship and the human themselves has been taken into consideration. The hoops used in this piece represent the universe in which the destruction of even one hoop will be dealt with punishment. One of the other properties of “link” ring is its view(appearance) which are different in different views.
Inspiration: The word Sustain means to keep alive and also the understanding of the relation between human beings and the nature and also the human beings with each other. The universe is a set of chains and there will be a punishment even if one of its hoops is destroyed. The ability of a chain is equal to the ability of its weakest hoop and due to this reason, everybody should cooperate like chain and show the importance of survival to the others with unity and reduce the amount of the nature destruction that badly impacts the mankind day after day.
Project Duration: This project kicked off in 2020 and was finalized after making the primary sample in 2021.
Operation Flow: In the design process of Link piece, with all the simplicities, the visual aspects have been the priority and the chain are the symbol of unity and bond. The complicated hoops in the center of the ring and also the minimal structure of the base part of silver, has made a beautiful and balanced design of unity and order with the disorder.
