Interviews met Mohammad Amin Moradi

I have been a jewelry designer for about 4 years.

I have always liked designing different things and being creative, I love the feeling that designing something and bringing your ideas to life gives you.

Being novel, practical while elegant would be my priority in designing. I mainly use MatrixGold and Keyshot to design and render.

Being creative and challenging my self into different types of designs makes me feel alive. It might be so challenging and even exhausting in some projects but in the end, it worths it.

I believe I am very accurate and diligent, and I do my best to achieve exactly what I want.

I used to be an architect and I liked it very much, but when I entered in jewelry designing I was obsessed with it. I like to be known as an impressive designer in the future. I like to make a difference in the design world.

This path requires consistency So Never give up and always try to do better in your next design. Don’t be afraid of being different, be creative and reckless. Good luck.

By feeling the satisfaction it gives me when it’s perfect.

This was my first time participating a competition, and it felt really good to know Im competing with the best. I’ve learned a-lot. It’s a great resume on a designers portfolio.

This design has been inspired by the roots of the trees of the woods which literally Create the jungle and there would be no jungle without roots. It's their strength that can cause a tree to grow and survive and their weakness can lead the woods to die. The main concept is that There are things that can not be seen in the first sight but are the main reason of existence.

Being meaningful and pointing to the philosophy of everything has roots and there will be no meaning without a main constituent.

I would love to turn it into a priceless peace of jewel in only one edition.

The idea has always been in my mind but designing, Cad and 3d rendering took me about 2 days.

I haven't decided it yet, We shall see what the offers will be.

It is a unisex peace and has a wide range of target customers.

The design has been Cad designed in matrixGold and has been rendered in Keyshot.

The way that roots are tangled while making a suitable form is my favorite.

Mandarin fish is a unique member of dragonet which is known for it's colorful and specific colors. The pattern of each fish, red, blue, yellow and green are unique and are as specific as a finger print for a human. I found them so fascinating and I tried to show their beauty by designing them.

My main focus was on the Gem stones colors so they could the possible colorful pattern of a Mandarin fish body.

CAD designing and rendering took me about a week

I designed this piece to show the beauty of underwater nature. There are lots of beautiful creatures in the nature and we might see them everyday but don't pay enough attention to how beautiful they actually are.

No, It was done by myself.

I think the colorful patterns made by Gemstones makes it different.

It is the name of this particular fish that I have designed.

I have used MatrixGold for CAD designing and Keyshot for rendering.

The various sizes, colors and the arrangement of Gemstones makes it unique.

The various colors and the pattern of the Mandarin fish's body itself has challenged me into designing and picking the colors of gemstones.

I studied architecture at university and got my masters. a few years later I found Jewelry designing fascinating and I studied jewelry CAD designing.

Designing makes me feel alive and powerful. I love the feeling that designing a piece based on my imaginations gives me and to see how that imagination becomes real is the greatest motive.

I have liked art since I was a kid, and I always dreamed about being an artist. It was definitely by choice.

I like historical and architectural jewelry designs. I also like nature-inspired designing, but I design everything.

They should be persistent in what they want and do their best to achieve it. They should always remember that the bigger a goal is, the harder they should try, so don't give up easily and know that future is going to define by their ideas.

A great designer has no limitation in designing.

Details being placed right and Design being practical while showing the concept makes a design good to me.

Designing for Cartier and Chopard.

I'm persistent in getting a results that satisfy me.

I would be a pilot.

My wife has always been my biggest supporter. She has always believed in me and motivated me to try more and to get what I want.

TO become one of the greatest Jewelry designers in history.

Designers are an important part of a society and can bring hope and happiness to other people by making the world more beautiful by their designs. Also using material and techniques that have lesser negative effect on the environment should be considered by a designer.

It depends on the design, It might take half an hour to weeks.

I start by doing lots of researches about it.

I think both of them affects each other.

I mostly use MatrixGold for CAD designing and Keyshot for rendering.

I like them to ask and realize the concept and the idea behind it.

It might not be related, But I really wanted to meet Tupac Shakur.

All colors are my favorites, I can' name one. I like Persian dishes, My favorite spot on earth is home, next to my wife.

I don't know if it was obvious. but it was my dream.

I have always loved art and design, So I studied architecture at university, but years later after I got my masters in architecture I found Jewelry designing fascinating and since then I've found my way inside jewelry design.

Delmor purpose is to make specific jewelry designs and custom made designs for any tastes.

It is a possession to me. Designing makes me feel alive and creativity makes me feel powerful. It feels great to design a piece based on your imaginations and see how it comes real.

I like historical and architectural jewelry designs. I also like nature-inspired designing, but I believe everything in this beautiful world can be a subject for a magnificent design.

I can't say I have a favorite since there are lots of fascinating designs in all fields and I honestly cant choose one.

It was a bypass engagement ring designed for a company in Iran which unfortunately I can't name.

I like working with MatrixGold for CAD designing and Keyshot for rendering.

my most creative moments are late at nights when I'm about going to sleep, but sometimes It's when I'm having intense feelings,

being practical while beautiful, and I enjoy focusing on details.

I feel confident and I feel like I'm growing more after every design.

I feel I'm on right track, and It's a powerful feeling and a combination of succeed and relief.

Since people have different tastes, designing something that most people would like, makes a design successful.

Details being placed right is the first aspect that I would consider. Design being practical while showing the concept comes next.

Designers are an important part of a society that can bring hope and happiness to other people in society. Also using material and techniques that have lesser negative effect on the environment should be considered by a designer.

Design itself can make the future. Designers can turn their imaginations into reality and build a future doing that.

Everything can inspire me, including people, their thoughts and beliefs, nature, buildings, histories and everything that is happening in world. I feed it with communicating, thinking and researching a lot. Also traveling and going on tours help a lot.

I don't know if I have a specific style but I always try to be detailed and to combine relative subjects into one design.

I was born and live in Iran and I'm sure cultural heritage does affect my designs since Iran has a rich art history. Iran heritage and historical artistry is like a university of art for every artist which is the biggest pro, But there are some limitations in designing based on heritages.

I'm a freelancer and usually I work with companies project based.

My suggestion to companies is to find a creative designer, trust them and allow them to grow their creativity into their designs and not to limit them only with their own ideas.

I pick a subject first, then I think and research about it, and then I think about it's designing techniques that it would be practical while beautiful and finally I start It's CAD designing.

They should be persistent in what they want and do their best to achieve it. They should always remember that the bigger a goal is, the harder they should try, so don't give up easily and know that future is going to define by their ideas.

My golden rule is that everything should look perfect by my own eyes.

being acute, creative, responsible and productive beside being skilled.

I mostly use softwares such as MatrixGold and Keyshot.

I try to work and design on a certain schedule. Sometimes It doesn't work but most of the times It does.

It depends on the design, It might take half an hour to weeks.

I'm on Instagram and linkdin both on my name and my phone number is in the bio, so people can contact me on whatsapp.

No, Thank you very much.

The mandarinfish is renowned for its stunning array of colors and its symbolic connections to marital bliss, joy, togetherness, and lasting relationships. To capture the biological traits of this scaleless species, a refined selection of precious and semi-precious stones—such as sapphires in various cuts (brilliant and marquise), emeralds, and diamonds—has been used to mimic its vivid natural hues, which in the wild function as a warning signal to predators rather than a mating display.

This design can amplify the trend of multifunctional jewelry, and when this idea tempts the designer, it naturally holds appeal for the consumer to benefit from it in accordance with the environment they’re in. On the other hand, depending on the wearer’s clothing style, this capability can eliminate certain limitations, be redefined, and also express the unisex nature of this jewelry piece.

Given that this design is inspired by nature and intended to make a precise, modern reference to the body details and anatomy of the fish, studies were conducted on various species and diverse appearances of this fish, as well as its movement in water, to accurately highlight the inherent beauties of the fish and depict its motion in the best possible way within a static object. Additionally, these studies played a significant role in selecting the colors, types, and shapes of the gemstones.

I studied the mandarinfish’s anatomy, colors, and fluid motion in water. I hand-forged 18k gold with chasing to mimic its scaleless texture. I set sapphires in brilliant and marquise cuts, emeralds, and diamonds using prong and pavé techniques, which are classic craftsmanship methods that provide warmth. I employed 3D modeling for ergonomic curves and spectral analysis to match the biofluorescent hues precisely. Tradition lent the piece soul and an heirloom feel. Modern tools ensured accuracy and lifelike grace in a static form. Nature’s vibrant warning display became timeless art.

Micro-setting dozens of tiny gemstones in the Mandarinfish Pendant was challenging but rewarding. I began with precise 3D modeling to map placements and avoid stress points. Using magnification, I hand-set each sapphire, emerald, and diamond with custom micro-gravers and prong techniques, working in phases and annealing the 18k gold to prevent warping. Organic shapes required tactile alignment and patience—resetting stones if needed. This careful process preserved every anatomical detail, turning complexity into fluid, lifelike elegance.

I translated harmony and happiness through form, color, and motion. The pendant’s fluid, undulating 18k gold silhouette mirrors the mandarinfish’s graceful swim—symbolizing unity in movement. Paired sapphires and emeralds in balanced, rhythmic clusters evoke marital harmony, their cool-warm contrast reflecting emotional balance. Brilliant-cut diamonds add joyful sparkle, like light dancing on water. The scaleless, seamless surface suggests enduring bonds—nothing breaks the flow. Every curve and stone placement follows nature’s rhythm, making abstract joy and togetherness quietly visible.

I started with simple paper sketches—quick lines to catch the fish’s curves and flow. They were rough but full of feeling.Then in MatrixGold, I rebuilt everything carefully, adjusting proportions and light on the stones. I kept going back to the paper to stay true to the original idea.It was just a quiet back-and-forth: hand and heart first, tools second. That balance helped the pendant feel natural and honest.

I hope the pendant quietly reminds people of the mandarinfish’s fragile reef home. Each time someone notices its colors or asks about it, it’s a small chance to share how these tiny, vivid creatures signal a healthy ocean—and why we must protect it.

I drew from the mandarinfish’s natural grace—its fluid forms and vibrant colors aren’t tied to any gender in the wild. I kept the pendant’s lines soft yet bold, with balanced proportions that feel welcoming to anyone. The symbolism of harmony and unity is universal, so I avoided ornate frills, focusing on quiet elegance that lets the wearer define it. It’s just a small way to make beauty inclusive.

I hope it quietly shows that nature’s fragile beauty deserves protection. By letting the mandarinfish’s story live in the piece, it might inspire others to design with care-honest work that honors the ocean and urges us to keep it safe.I also hope it shows that a story from nature can live in jewelry without shouting. By letting the fish’s quiet beauty speak, it might encourage others to weave real meaning into their pieces—simple, honest narratives that touch the heart.
