About Van Gogh's Sunflowers Pendentes

Os Xirasoles de Van Gogh son un par de pendentes feitos a man inspirados nunha natureza morta de xirasoles. Os pendentes están feitos de ouro de 18 quilates e engastados con citrinas naturais e diamantes amarelos en engastes de chatón. Múltiples tonalidades de citrina amarela recrean os matices da pintura. As pedras preciosas superpóñense entre si e crean un efecto tridimensional, semellante ás capas dunha flor. Un acabado mate con liñas finas representa as follas, mentres que un acabado pulido representa as pólas. A forma audaz confire ao deseño unha aparencia escultórica.

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.

Persistent search for different shades of citrine for the different shades of yellow of Van Gogh sunflowers. Gemstones "welded" over gemstones to show the layers of flowers, forming a 3D jewelry. Matte finish with lines to represent the leaves and polished finish to represent the branches.
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.
