Unique Properties: The Lilies of Wavre collection delicately combines elegance and sophistication. Its main element is formed by three waterlilies connected with thin, curved lines reminiscent of water herbs. The top of the piece resembles a crown. This jewelry set includes a necklace, earrings and bracelets, available in different sizes, so that one can wear a more discreet version for everyday or a more glamorous one for special events. The collection is available in yellow and white gold, as well as silver.
Dimensions & Packaging: The elements are 1,5x1cm, 2x1,5cm and 3x2,5cm in size. They are used in various combinations to form single-element and multi-element necklaces and bracelets and earrings. The pieces are available in 18k and 14k white gold with palladium as well as rhodium-plated sterling silver.

Production Technology: The production involves manual design, 3D design and prototyping, high precision casting, laser and manual welding, as well as manual finishing. For finishing of rhodium-plated white gold and silver versions, it also involves electroplating.
Design Challenge: When creating a three-dimensional design based on a flat coat of arms, one encounters a few challenges. In the original coat of arms, the waterlilies are placed on a white or transparent background. The solution was to create curved lines reminiscent of aquatic vegetation and conforming to the overall style. Other challenges were more technical, particularly ensuring that the crown elements would be sufficiently stable during printing and casting, especially for the smallest-sized elements.
Research: The research was to explore the possibility of conveying the coat of arms in a way that would make it the prototype of an elegant jewelry that could be worn to events and on a daily basis. Rather than simply hanging the coat of arms around one's neck, the idea was to use its shape and elements, so that even those who know nothing of this particular town would find it attractive. In other words, the goal was to create jewelry that was spectacular, stylish, and at the same time unmistakably Made in Wavre.
Inspiration: Lilies of Wavre were inspired by the historical coat of arms of Wavre, Belgium - three elements resembling either waterlilies or hearts. Representing the marshy surroundings and the warmth and friendliness of its inhabitants, the idea came to create a three-dimensional jewelry resembling the original coat of arms. With a few design elements added for technical feasibility, the finished piece embodies the spirit of the place.
Project Duration: Lilies of Wavre were created in 2019. The project took around 2 months. It was first presented to public at an art exhibition in Belgium.
Operation Flow: All necklaces, bracelets and earrings are flexible and have convenient locks, making them comfortable to take on/off and wear.
