The Design

About Wrinkled Armbånd og øredobber

Wrinkled er en smykkekolleksjon inspirert av metallskrot. Ved å bruke to ulike råmetaller i markante farger, kombinert med en rynket overflate og en tøff design, bryter Wrinkled med idealet om klassiske og feminine smykker. Kolleksjonen er mer enn bare smykker, de er statement-kunstverk for dristige mennesker.

Unique Properties
Wrinkled is a collection of a bracelet and earrings made in two-tones crumpled metal. The scratched finish gives a rough touch to the contemporary jewelry collection. Although made of metal, both the bracelet and earrings are very light due to the thin stainless steel and brass sheets on which the two pieces of jewelry are made.
Dimensions & Packaging
Both pieces of jewelry were made of stainless steel and brass sheets.
Bracelet Dimensions: Width 66 mm x Depth 55 mm x Height 60 mm, Weight: 90g
Earrings Dimensions: Width 45 mm x Depth 0.4 mm x Height 60 mm, Weight: 15g

Production Technology
The jewelry collection was handmade using brass and stainless steel in overlapping sheets. The brass sheet was bended using pliers and both metal sheets were joined together with mini rivets. The pieces os jewelry have brushed finishing and a thin matte varnish to avoid tarnishing.
Design Challenge
The challenge faced in designing the collection was to join two different metals. Stainless steel has a much higher melting temperature than brass, so soldering these materials was discarded. The solution found was to join the two metal sheets with mini rivets, which contributes strongly to the rustic appearance of the collection.
Research
The research was about the metal scraps threw away in junkyards that could turn into jewelry.
Inspiration
The concept used to create the collection was the rusticity of the crumpled metals and rough finishing, breaking up with the delicacy and the preciousness of the traditional jewelry.
Project Duration
The collection was conceived in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2013.
Operation Flow
The collection consists in a bracelet and earrings. The designs were conceived to be used as Statement Jewelry.
