About The Roaring Lion Maringal na Choker

Ang Roaring Lion Choker ay pinagsasama ang tradisyonal na gawang-kamay at makabagong teknik upang lumikha ng isang eskulturang alahas. Gawa sa puting ginto, ang may-tatsang motif ng leon ay nakikipag-ugnayan sa liwanag upang palakasin ang lalim at dimensyon. Ang mga hibla ng perlas na Tahitiano ay nagbibigay ng kontrast, binabalanse ang istraktura at daloy. Ang proseso ng disenyo ay nagsangkot ng malawakang pananaliksik sa komposisyon ng materyales at kaginhawahan sa pagsusuot, tinitiyak ang biswal na impakto at ginhawa. Higit pa sa palamuti, ang choker ay sumasalamin sa personal na pagpapahayag sa pamamagitan ng hugis, tekstura, at komposisyon.

Production Technology: Each piece has been meticulously crafted in the tradition of fine jewelry making, cut, carved, shaped, soldered, and polished by hand. Diamonds are bezel-set, and crosses were made separately, then pinned and soldered from the back. The pearls have wider drill holes to fit onto the rods. These stainless steel rods pass through the lion’s head, providing stiffness while maintaining flexibility and comfort. After testing various methods, we achieved the perfect balance for Qymira’s performance.
Design Challenge: The challenge was to give a floating feel to a piece that should remain stable on the neck of the artist while she is dancing or playing violin on stage.
Concerning the main piece, filing and polishing each facet to perfection posed a challenge that demanded skill, time and unwavering focus.
Research: The research for The Roaring Lion Choker combined artistic exploration and technical innovation. Our objective was to fuse high jewelry craftsmanship with bold symbolism. We love historical regalia, modern faceting techniques, and material interactions. Using 3D modeling and metal prototyping, we refined the lion’s sculptural form. Giving life and expression to a geometrical mathematical shape. This research pushes design boundaries, blending heritage with avant-garde luxury.
Inspiration: Inspired by the fearless spirit of Qymira, a captivating artist, singer, composer, lyricist and actress. The Roaring Lion Choker embodies strength, artistry, and defiance. It honors her inner lioness, carrying her voice into the universal language of music.
Project Duration: The Project duration last 5 months from ideation to completion. Locations span from New York to Bayonne France and our atelier in Hong Kong.
Operation Flow: The Roaring Lion Choker creates an immediate emotional impact, embodying strength and individuality. The faceted white gold lion’s head commands attention, while Tahitian pearls and white diamonds provide contrast in texture and light. Designed for comfort, its structure contours naturally to the wearer’s neck, ensuring a seamless fit. Beyond adornment, it is a statement, inviting admiration, conversation, and a deep connection between the piece, the wearer, and the audience.
