Production Technology

Pair of 3D-designed and 3D-printed wax mold and cast silver bracelets with the best available material (s925).
Variable in every metallic material: gold, steel, silver, platinum, or different plating in every possible color.

Design Challenge

The most challenging and frustrating part in designing the bracelets, In contrast to other fine jewelry that has their decorations on the outer surface, this collection has internal and interlacing decoration which causes this obstacle makes it harder to scale the final product fit on the wrist.
The next problem was due to the 3D cast making. As for having several 3D printing methods the most important factor for choosing wax modeling was accuracy which in other cases cause the internal lines to overlap.
In addition to 3D prints and casting operation was which materials to use as filaments, for instance, plastic-based filaments (ABS/PLA) wouldn’t make it through the heat casting process and would stick to the product causing impurity in the final product. But SLA wax modeling technique won't cause problems as the wax would evaporate in the contact of extreme of kiln leaving the hot cast empty of any other materials resulting in a pure product.

Research

Sohrab Sepehri had a major idol role in designers' life, so they felt a need to pay back in their own ways. As for their adoration towards all his life works, they felt an existential love for "the footsteps of water", they set their minds to build a relationship with the blank verse and their works. In order to establish a balance between the work and the blank verse, designers animated Sohrab's lifestyle of simplicity, modesty, and receptivity.

Inspiration

The FRONT collection is inspired by a poem of a great Persian poet, Sohrab Sepehri, acknowledged worldwide for his paintings, in Iran he was known for his blank verses. His poem, named "The footsteps of water", points out the necessity of changing the point of view toward all phenomena: "Wash up the eye, See the otherwise"; this verse is the foundation of this design. The designer, inspired by the blank verse, strongly believes that point of view is much more essential than perception itself.
