About Space Couple Obesek

Space Couple je obesek, navdihnjen s solarnim mrkom. Design združuje element sonca in element lune v asimetrični kompoziciji, ki nakazuje orbitalno gibanje. Odstranljivi deli omogočajo, da se obesek nosi na dva načina. Verižica lahko poteka skozi luknjo solarne ploščice, tako da luna visi nad njo. Del, ki predstavlja luno, se lahko tudi navleče skozi element sonca in zavaruje kot zaponka tipa "toggle". Organska prosta oblika je bila modelirana v 3D-ju in ulita v rožnato in belo zlato po postopku ulivanja z izgubljenim voskom.

Unique Properties: Removable elements allow wearing the pendant in two different ways to simulate a solar eclipse. Pendant has unique organic and free form shape.
Dimensions & Packaging: Dimensions 25mm-27mm-7mm, 7g
Tags: sun, moon, pendant, jewelry, silver, gold, space
Production Technology: The pendant is created as a 3D CAD design within Zbrush, printed the wax model on a 3D printer and produced by traditional lost-wax casting process with Pink and White Gold.
Design Challenge: The most challenging was to create uniform and even form for a sun pendant via modelling software
Research: Different types of clasps were studied before creating the composition of pendant. Also the research indicates that there are no pieces of jewelry with the same composition and construction representing the solar eclipse. The research was done using online tools and searches.
Inspiration: The inspiration came from the fascinating beauty of space by watching a solar eclipse. A solar eclipse is not a static phenomenon where the Moon orbits Earth and Earth orbits the Sun, in addition to spinning on its axis. Thus, the idea was to create a piece of jewelry to show this stunning orbital motion and the Sun-Moon interaction. The jewelry asymmetrical composition is balanced and helps create a sense of movement
Project Duration: March 2020 in Saint-Petersbrug, Russia
Operation Flow: This manipulation with the sun and the moon charms mimics the solar eclipse. The chain could be set up simply through the hole of the solar disk. In this case the fastened moon would be hanging from the chain higher. Or the moon part with the chain could be thread the sun pendant and secured as a toggle clasp
