The Design

About Space Couple Pandantif

Space Couple se yon pandantif ki enspire pa yon eklips solè. Desen an mete yon eleman solèy ak yon eleman lalin ansanm nan yon konpozisyon asimetrik ki sijere yon mouvman òbital. Pyès ki ka retire yo pèmèt pandantif la ka pote nan de fason diferan. Chenn nan ka pase nan twou disk solè a, konsa lalin lan pann anlè li. Pyès lalin lan kapab tou pase nan eleman solèy la epi fikse tankou yon femti (toggle clasp). Fòm lib ak òganik la te modle an 3D epi te koule an lò woz ak lò blan avèk pwosesis lasi pèdi a (lost-wax process).

Production Technology
The pendant is created as a 3D CAD design within Zbrush, printed the wax model on a 3D printer and produced by traditional lost-wax casting process with Pink and White Gold.
Design Challenge
The most challenging was to create uniform and even form for a sun pendant via modelling software
Research
Different types of clasps were studied before creating the composition of pendant. Also the research indicates that there are no pieces of jewelry with the same composition and construction representing the solar eclipse. The research was done using online tools and searches.
Inspiration
The inspiration came from the fascinating beauty of space by watching a solar eclipse. A solar eclipse is not a static phenomenon where the Moon orbits Earth and Earth orbits the Sun, in addition to spinning on its axis. Thus, the idea was to create a piece of jewelry to show this stunning orbital motion and the Sun-Moon interaction. The jewelry asymmetrical composition is balanced and helps create a sense of movement
Project Duration
March 2020 in Saint-Petersbrug, Russia
Operation Flow
This manipulation with the sun and the moon charms mimics the solar eclipse. The chain could be set up simply through the hole of the solar disk. In this case the fastened moon would be hanging from the chain higher. Or the moon part with the chain could be thread the sun pendant and secured as a toggle clasp
