About Van Gogh's Sunflowers Earrings

Van Gogh's Sunflowers is a pair of handmade earrings inspired by a still life painting of sunflowers. The earrings are made of 18 karat gold and set with natural citrines and yellow diamonds in bezel settings. Many shades of yellow citrine recreate the tones of the painting. The gemstones overlap each other and create a three-dimensional effect, similar to the layers of a flower. A matte finish with fine lines represents the leaves, while a polished finish represents the branches. The bold shape gives the design a sculptural appearance.

Design Challenge
Persistent search for different shades of citrine for the different shades of yellow of Van Gogh sunflowers. Gemstones "welded" over gemstones to show the layers of flowers, forming a 3D jewelry. Matte finish with lines to represent the leaves and polished finish to represent the branches.
Research
After extensive research on Van Gogh's paintings (there are almost 2000 works), the painting was chosen that would be the inspiration for the design. Then research was carried out on the painted tree (understanding of what the painter saw to be inspired). Realized the ideal design of the piece and choice of the ideal materials for execution.
