The Design

About The Ab 주얼리

반지는 상단에서 깊은 입체감을 부여하도록 디자인되었으며, 고광택 반사 처리된 중공 중심부가 빛 아래 물의 매혹적인 반짝임을 아름답게 재현합니다. 팔찌 역시 깊이감과 거의 신비로운 듯한 광채를 모두 지니고 있어 시각적 매력을 한층 높입니다. 강렬한 대비를 만들고 디자인의 상징적 본질을 강화하기 위해 반지와 팔찌 모두의 외부 표면은 의도적으로 세련된 무광 질감으로 마감되었습니다.

Unique Properties: The ring is crafted with a sense of depth from the top, featuring a polished, reflective hollow center that mimics the shimmering effect of water under light. Similarly, the bracelet possesses both depth and a luminous quality. To enhance contrast and reinforce the symbolism of the design, the outer surfaces of both the ring and bracelet have a matte finish.
Dimensions & Packaging: Ring: Total height:29.40 mm / upper part height:7.67 mm / Length:21.97 mm
Bangle: Height:55.27 mm / Length:66.42 mm / Width:12.99 mm

Production Technology: The process began with initial sketches, which were then digitally rendered using Matrix software. A tridimensional printer was used to create resin prototypes and prepare the mold. The next stage involved casting in 925 silver, a step that required high precision due to the substantial form of both pieces. Once cast, the finishing phase began; giving the outer surfaces a matte texture while polishing the inner sections and recesses to a glossy shine, enhancing their contrast and depth.
Design Challenge: After researching the main idea, the most challenging aspects of production were casting and finishing. Casting silver requires high precision, especially for volumetric forms, as they are prone to defects during the process. Additionally, achieving the dual finishes (matte and glossy) demanded meticulous attention to detail to ensure a clean and flawless final product.
Research: Symbols play a crucial role in shaping beliefs and culture, as Carl Jung suggested, connecting the conscious and unconscious. Water, an alchemical element, universally represents life, purity, and spiritual renewal. In ancient Iranian and Avestan traditions, water (Ab) was revered as divine, with ponds symbolizing purification and a link to deities like Anahita. Zoroastrian texts such as the Yasna and Aban Yasht highlight the sacredness of water, purifying nature, and its cosmic role in maintaining order.
Inspiration: The Ab is inspired by ancient symbols, water, and ponds, rooted in Avestan spirituality and Persian tradition. While fire is a central element in Iranian culture, water holds equal sacredness. The Persians revered water for its ability to cleanse, heal, and sustain life. Ponds in Persian gardens were more than aesthetic; they symbolized divine harmony, renewal, and the eternal connection between humanity and the divine.
Project Duration: The main idea of the project appeared in January 2024 on a vacation to Yazd (the Zoroastrianism center in Iran). In the last week of February 2024, the designer started to sketch and research. The production process began in June 2024 and was completed by July 2024.
Operation Flow: Both the bangle and the ring have a minimalist design. They are lightweight and suitable for daily use and different outfits and styles. Also, the bangle is adjustable for different sizes depending on its design.
