About Happiness Брош, Приврзок

Среќа е накит што може да се носи како брош или како приврзок. Дизајнот прикажува сврака покрај бамбус, два мотиви поврзани во source ориенталната култура со добра среќа и благороден карактер. Сврaката е изработена со традиционалната клоазоне техника, која му дава на птицата богати бои и текстури. Бамбусот е изработен од злато и сребро и е украсен со дијаманти и смарагди. Секој чекор е завршен рачно, вклучувајќи изработка на жица, глазирање, повторено печење на висока температура и брусење. Целта е традиционалниот занает да се внесе во современиот накит.

Design Challenge
The biggest challenge of this design is to break through the tradition and combine the cloisonne craftsmanship originally applied to the utensils with gold and gemstones to make the design a unique piece of jewelry.
Research
Because the craftsmanship of Cloisonne uses copper as the inner bottom tire, in order to make the blue and green more vivid, it can experiment with silver tires. So the artist tried to adjust during the production process and successfully got more beautiful colors.
Inspiration
As a bird that symbolizes auspiciousness, it is said that seeing a magpie means something good will happen. Bamboo is a very important plant in oriental culture, symbolizing noble and great character. The overall design is very oriental. The artist used cloisonne to create the magpie, showing the rich colors and textures that make the bird look more vivid. The bamboo behind it is gold and silver colour, inlaid with diamonds and emeralds, making the whole design more gorgeous.
