About Space Couple 吊坠

《太空伴侣》是一款以日食为灵感的吊坠。设计将太阳元素与月亮元素以不对称的构成结合在一起,暗示着天体的轨道运行。可拆卸的部件使吊坠拥有两种佩戴方式:链条可穿过日盘的孔洞,让月亮悬于其上;月亮部件也可穿过太阳元素并作为搭扣固定。这一自由有机的造型经3D建模,并以失蜡铸造工艺用粉金与白金铸成。

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
