The Design

About Van Gogh Øredobber

Øredobber inspirert av Mandeltreet i blomst malt av Van Gogh. Grenenes delikate form er gjenskapt med spinkle kjeder av Cartier-type som, lik grenene, svaier i vinden. De ulike nyansene i de forskjellige edelsteinene, fra nesten hvit til en mer intens rosa, representerer blomstenes fargenyanser. Klyngen av blomstrende blomster er representert med forskjellige slipte steiner. Laget av 18k gull, rosa diamanter, morganitter, rosa safirer og rosa turmaliner. Polert og teksturert finish. Ekstremt lette og med perfekt passform. Dette er vårens ankomst i form av et smykke.

Design Challenge: During the search for the idealized materials, some types of gemstones were not located and some cut formats were unavailable. The acquisition of gemstones in other formats and types was carried out and a new design was performed adapting to the materials found. Another challenge was to find stones with the right weight in order to make an earring with 25 gemstons extremely light.
Research: After extensive research on van Gogh's paintings (there are almost 2000 works), the painting was chosen that would be the inspiration for the design. Then research was carried out on the painted tree (understanding of what the painter saw to be inspired). Realized the ideal design of the piece and choice of the ideal materials for execution.
Inspiration: The jewels in this collection were inspired by the works of artist Vincent Van Gogh. The earrings presented were inspired by the "Almond tree in blossom" canvas. The branches are represented by the currents and the different shapes and the gradient in the shades of pink represent the flowers in different phases. Just as a tree has its branches moving with the wind, the earring has balance and delicacy.
Project Duration: The project started in september 2019 in Brasilia, Brazil, and finished in January 2020 in Brasilia, Brazil.
