The Design

About Van Gogh's Gladioli Ketting

Van Gogh's Gladiolen is een handgemaakte ketting geïnspireerd op een bloemenschilderij van Vincent van Gogh. De ketting is gemaakt van 18 karaats goud en gezet met natuurlijke edelstenen, waaronder lichte citrien, robijn en morganiet. De diversiteit van de bloemen komt tot uiting in de verschillende tinten en kleuren van de stenen. Fijne graveringen in het goud verbeelden de middennerf en de nerven van de bladeren. De contouren volgen de asymmetrie en het evenwicht die in de natuur te vinden zijn. Het sieraad is lichtgewicht en comfortabel te dragen.

Design Challenge
This is a jewel full of details: lines that scratch the metal, imitating the grooves of the leaves. There are galleries all over the necklace to hide the links that give IT a trim. But the big challenges were controlling the colors (a rare combination of salmon pink, intense red and light yellow) and balancing such an asymmetrical design, where harmony and beauty are perceived even without symmetry.
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.
