Design Challenge
I naturally do not have the gifts in drawings, I normally make my prototypes with papers, and try to illustrate as close as possible to the final envisioned product. The rest of the items details will have to be communicated with the manufacturer bit by bit.
Research
My main goal was to create a delicate piece that uplifts a woman's elegance, no matter if she's attending a function or at work, Simple yet elegant. Therefore, this design with flower petals was chosen. Due to limitation of funds, I could only realise this with Cubic Zirconias. However, I do believe I still maintained the same shining effects.
Inspiration
I personally love dangling earrings to begin with. I am hoping to set up my own online jewelry business with a range consisting only of my own signature pieces. Designs should be different from what the rest of the market has to offer and with a point of difference. As for Technical Inspiration, it had come from a lantern that i made with my dad during childhood.
Project Duration
Project started in 2019 finished around April 2019 in Melbourne
Operation Flow
Main purpose here is to show this earring is able to give off a 3D feel, earrings can be threading on the earhole (as in the photo) or on hook earrings. This design could also be manufactured with coloured stones. Pink, blue, green etc.
