Production Technology
The design process blends traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Each piece is meticulously handmade, showcasing refined polishing techniques and attention to detail. The sustainable materials used, such as lab-grown diamonds and emeralds, are ethically sourced, ensuring luxury with responsibility. The design draws inspiration from French art and culture, seamlessly merging elegance with eco-consciousness. Advanced production methods maintain precision while honoring the artisanal spirit, resulting in timeless, sustainable jewelry.
Design Challenge
We faced two production challenges. First, incorporating a real moving hour hand required a mechanism (a watch movement), adding weight and reducing comfort. To enhance wearability while preserving symbolism, we chose decorative hour hands. Second, using gemstones as the cover obstructed visibility and altered the design. We selected a white mother-of-pearl base for contrast and glass for clarity, ensuring elegance and functionality to achieve the desired effect.
Research
This earring stems from deep design research, blending Baroque elegance, Versailles’ gardens, and sustainability. We studied historical jewelry, architecture, and nature’s symbolism to create a piece reflecting resilience and femininity. Using archival research, expert input, and material testing, we refined the design with lab-grown emeralds, diamonds, and a mother-of-pearl clock face. This fusion of history and eco-luxury empowers women while redefining fine jewelry with purpose.
Inspiration
Inspired by the grandeur of Baroque architecture and the gardens of Versailles, this earring features graceful arcs and vibrant green emeralds reminiscent of lush greenery. At the center, an intricate clock face symbolizes the palace's precision, while lab-grown diamonds add luxury with sustainability. Blending French culture, history, and modern design, OBY creates eco-friendly jewelry celebrating nature and style, empowering women to express elegance and conscience.
Project Duration
The project began in Auguest 2024 in France and concluded in December 2024.
Operation Flow
This earring design offers a blend of elegance and functionality with its unique clock face and sustainable materials. The key frames include the central clock face made of mother-of-pearl, flanked by lab-grown emeralds and diamonds. The design operates as a statement piece, offering versatility with its subtle elegance, while the lab-grown materials ensure eco-friendliness. The polished finish and precise craftsmanship elevate its aesthetic, providing both luxury and sustainability, delivering a superior result for conscious fashion.
