About Plongereclat 주얼리

이 목걸이와 귀걸이 세트는 호주산 볼더 오팔을 중심으로 다이아몬드, 사파이어, 에메랄드로 장식되어 있습니다. 주요 볼더 오팔은 매끄러우면서도 기복 있는 표면을 자랑하며, 천연 그대로의 기원을 보여줍니다. 물결치는 디자인과 인상적인 녹색과 청색의 대리석 무늬는 바다의 느낌을 불러일으킵니다. 디자이너는 이 바다 속으로 뛰어들면 귀중한 보석처럼 색채와 빛이 흩뿌려질 것이라는 낭만적인 장면을 구상했습니다. 이러한 예술적 비전이 주얼리 작품에 아름답게 구현되어 있습니다.

Unique Properties: This necklace and earrings set features an Australian boulder opal as the centerpiece, decorated with diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds. The main boulder opal has a smooth but wavy surface, a natural creation. Its wavy form, beautiful green and blue marble pattern evoke the sense of the sea. The designer envisioned a romantic moment, imagining that if one were to jump into this sea, the colors and splashes of light would scatter like precious jewels. This vision is captured in the jewelry.
Dimensions & Packaging: Motif dimensions: 25.3mm x 26.1mm
Chain length: 55.0 cm

Production Technology: Use K18 yellow gold for its durability and ubiquity. Natural gemstones are carefully selected and purchased, crafted with Australian opals, diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds. The smallest one is only 1.2 mm in size. Totally 69 pieces of gemstones are arranged in the necklace, and the frame was designed by 3D CG individually. After the casting process, the stones are prong-set by skilled craftsmen’s hands. Even the gaps between the smallest parts are polished by hand to the utmost perfection.
Design Challenge: The edges complement the boulder opals’ natural beauty, forming delicate bars by connecting assorted sizes and shapes of gemstones. Highly skilled craftsmen are required to achieve the instruction with 0.1 mm precision. The connected parts of the bars are designed at varying heights, creating 3D shapes that evoke the realistic movement of water splashes. Despite its delicate appearance, the piece is repeatedly adjusted to ensure durability and maintain its strength as a wearable jewelry items.
Research: The designers studied the expressions of the sea, which was chosen as the motif, and created a series of rough sketches capturing the movement of the water's surface and the dynamic splashes. Using design software, they selected the balance that comes closest to natural beauty from the sense of rhythm created by subtle variations in the arrangement of gemstones. Within the small world of jewelry, there is a profound respect for the majestic and mysterious nature.
Inspiration: BIZOUX has a prime collection of loose gemstones from all over the world. Plongereclat was inspired by the unique boulder opals. Derived from the French words 'plonger' (to jump into the water), and 'éclaire' (flash of light). The scene is portrayed by the boulder opal. Edged by two shapes of diamonds, the brilliant cut represents the sparkling splashes, while the tapered shape draws the vigorous trajectories. Sapphires and emeralds are added as the overflowing blues and greens of the opal.
Project Duration: The production of "Plongereclat" began in November 2022 at our office in Nihonbashi, Tokyo. The design drawings and detailed sketches were created at BIZOUX's atelier, and the piece was made in a workshop located in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, one of Japan's leading jewelry production centers. The work was completed in February 2023 and is proudly showcased at GINZA SIX, a prestigious luxury shopping complex in Tokyo's Ginza district.
Operation Flow: The necklace and earrings can be easily worn by opening and closing the clasp located at the back of the chain. They are lightweight and designed for stress-free wear. Wearing this set will elevate your outfit, adding a touch of glamour and elegance.
