Design Challenge: Throughout the process of making this earring, the hardest part was where should the clasp been placed, and how to make it invisible, also comfortable, at this period a lot of tryouts must be done, and broke two pieces in experiment. As finally been accomplished, this part was added various small details and small components inside the earring. Another part was finding the balance of the earring, as can be seen from the special form, it's not a tradition kind of earring, so finding the perfect balancing both visually and comfortably was a hard part. The team tried lots of times and many adjustments to accomplish.
