About Reflection Gulakhalkalar
Reflection gaýtadan ulanylan 18 karat ak altyndan ýasalan asimmetrik gulakhalkalar jübütidir. Altyn sim görnüşine çekilip, esasy gulakhalkanyň göwresini emele getirýär. Uly çep gulakhalka gulagyň daşyndan ilýär, sag gulakhalka bolsa kiçijik çüýşedir. Aýratyn asma bölegi islendik gulakhalka birikdirilip ýa-da zynjyra geçirilip, gulakasma (kulon) hökmünde dakylyp bilner. Sapfirler we göwherler el bilen grain we bezel usullarynda oturdylandyr. Dizaýn suwda öz şöhlelenmesine seredýän guşdan hem-de görkezilýän tarap bilen gizlin saklanýan tarapyň arasyndaky tapawutdan ylham alandyr.

- Research
- Following my initial image of bird on a branch viewing reflection I spent time researching bird image and reflection in water and how what’s seen is it a mirror image . I spent days re sketching the image to its basic wire form and from their transformed the initial shape using cad cam and by stretching the shape it took on a hook shape which inspired the hook design around the ear with the reflection part progression to a removable drop .Methods included sketching, layout tracing , hand rendering and cad cam with the making using hand craftsmanship.
- Inspiration
- Originally based on a bird viewing its own reflection in the water
we do not always see the perfect reflection of ourselves.
I wanted to design based on the the side we show and the side we keep hidden.The right earring is flamboyant were the left is more subtle - Project Duration
