About Link リング

「Link」は、チェーンの形状から着想を得たシルバーリングです。連結されたフープで構成されており、着用者が自由に付け足したり外したりできるため、そのたびに新たな形へと変化します。中央の複雑に絡み合うフープが、ミニマルなシルバーのベースと対比をなし、秩序と無秩序の間に絶妙なバランスを生み出しています。見る角度によってリングの表情が変わるのも特徴です。切断、成形、溶接のすべての工程が手作業で行われています。チェーンは、一体性、そして人と自然との結びつきを象徴しています。

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.
