A prepaus de String in the Tail Braçalet

String in the Tail es un braçalet rigid que servís tanben coma braçalet sople. La concepcion combina d'elements figuratius e abstraches inspirats pel movement del peis combatent siamés. Un fial de perlas a tres brins amb una bòla d'aur forma un fermalh reglable, de biais que la longor se pòt cambiar per s'adaptar al canèl. La pèça es faita entièrament a la man a partir d'aur blanc e jaune de 18 carats reütilizat. De diamants jaunes naturals son sertits contra de diamants blancs, e las perlas repausan doçament contra la pèl. La talha a la man dòna forma als detalhs fluids de las aletas.

Proprietats Unicas: A unique design combining figurative and abstract elements .The piece looks like a bangle but is also part bracelet with a 3 strand string of pearls as an adjustable catch.This piece is also completely hand made from reused gold with natural yellow and white diamonds and pearls.

Tecnologia de Produccion: Made from repurposed 18ct white gold using traditional jewellery making skill with new lazer welding techniques in order to mix the carved fi details with the clean straight diamond set edges. Enhanced metal carving skills in order to create the fluidity of the fin shapes that were not too thin .Difficulties occurred in selecting a perfect 156 matching natural yellow diamonds out of 450 diamonds. The catch took some consideration so the bangle can be adjusted.
Recèrca: Research spent time studying the movement and decoration of siamese fighting fish and many hours sketching the layout of the design by hand drawing at scale. Lots of time spent perfecting the hand carving skill for the fin detail and silver prototype for the catch.
Inspiracion: The fluid movement and eye catching flamboyance of the Siamese fighting fish , so hypnotising they are like dancers and wanted to create a piece that was flamboyant and captured the movement and flow, making the metal seem light , almost molten which is then turned into wristwear that is aesthetically stunning but also playful with the moveable string of pearl which is also the catch.I try to combine reality with abstract design.
