About Mai 12 Collection Xoias de Prata
A colección Mai 12 é un conxunto de xoias de prata que inclúe unha pulseira e un anel. O deseño está inspirado nas doce esquinas entrantes, coñecidas como Mai 12, unha característica da arquitectura tradicional tailandesa na que as esquinas dunha estrutura cadrada están recuadas. A colección reinterpreta a forma da estupa entrante retorcendo a forma e desprazando as esquinas para crear dimensión. Un patrón grajang decora as superficies e confire ás pezas un carácter contemporáneo. A produción realízase en prata mediante tecnoloxía de deseño e fabricación asistidos por ordenador.

- The difficulty of this piece is both in design and manufacture.
In terms of design we try to design an architectural work which is a geometric shape, to delicate and beautiful ornament. In the form of contemporary Thai art
In terms of the production of the bangle, we have to think of a way to turn it on and off. It retains the shape of 12 indented corners, but can actually be worn. In addition, the workpiece has many corner. Making it difficult to produce It requires a relatively high craftmanship skill. - Research
- Indented corners are a feature of traditional Thai architecture where the corners of a rectangular structure are broken up into multiple recessed corners. The most common form features three angles at each of the structure's four corners, and is referred to as twelve indented corners, or Mai12. The form is featured extensively in the religious architecture of the late Ayutthaya period, and can be found in stupas (chedi), building columns, and the tiered spires of the prasat architectural form
- Inspiration
- Mai 12 Collection is inspired by the twelve indented corners (Mai 12: Thai word), which is the design of the Thai architectural style.
The twelve indented corners were used in the design of this collection.
