O dizajnu Whispers Under Wings Obesek za ogrlico
Whispers Under Wings je obesek za ogrlico v obliki hrošča. Votla krila tvorijo nežno ažurno lupino, v kateri je viseča majhna vila. Ob gibanju nosilca se notranja vila premika in oddaja nežen zvok, podoben zvončku. Obesek je bil razvit z digitalnim modeliranjem in izdelan iz srebra s tehniko litja v izgubljeni vosek, čemur so sledili ročna obdelava, poliranje in skrbno sestavljanje. Kos meri 20 x 40 x 15 milimetrov. Hrošč je uporabljen kot simbol zaščite, preobrazbe in odpornosti, medtem ko gibljiva vila namiguje na krhkost in domišljijo.

- Edinstvene lastnosti
- This pendant reimagines the beetle as a kinetic vessel of enchantment. The hollowed wings form a delicate architectural shell, encasing a suspended sprite that moves freely within. As the wearer moves, the inner fairy gently shifts, producing a clear, bell-like resonance. The design merges sculptural precision with interactive sound, transforming jewelry into a living, sensory experience defined by motion, lightness, and subtle acoustic presence.
- Dimenzije in embalaža
- 20mm x 40mm x 15mm, silver weight 18.1g
- Oznake
- Fairy, Beetle, Necklace, Niutopia
- Proizvodna tehnologija
- The design was developed through digital modeling to precisely define the hollow structure and internal suspension system. Using lost-wax casting, the beetle form was translated into metal while preserving fine openwork details. The inner sprite element was fabricated and integrated through a concealed kinetic mounting. Final processes included hand finishing, polishing, and careful assembly to ensure balanced movement and acoustic clarity.
- Oblikovalski izziv
- The main challenge was developing a hollow structure that could securely contain the inner sprite while allowing it to move freely and produce sound. The internal spacing had to be carefully adjusted to prevent obstruction while maintaining stability. Achieving the right balance between structural strength and visual lightness required multiple prototypes. Special attention was given to suspension, weight distribution, and assembly to ensure both durability and consistent kinetic response.
- Raziskave
- The design was influenced by the forests of Vancouver, where close observation of insects, organic structures, and natural movement sparked imaginative exploration. Sketching and prototyping were used to study how a protective outer form could contain a delicate inner presence. Special attention was given to creating a hollow structure that allows internal movement while maintaining stability. Through iterative testing, the relationship between protection, motion, and sound was refined, resulting in a piece that reflects the quiet vitality and mystery of nature.
- Inspiracija
- The design is inspired by the beetle, a symbol of protection, transformation, and resilience. By envisioning the beetle as a living vessel, the piece explores the idea of an inner spirit sheltered within a structured exterior. The suspended sprite represents fragility and imagination, while the hollow wings suggest permeability rather than enclosure. Movement and sound become metaphors for presence, reminding the wearer that life, even when protected, remains dynamic and responsive.
- Trajanje projekta
- The project stated in December 2025 in Vancouver and finished in January 2026.
- Potek delovanja
- The pendant comes to life through the wearer’s movement. As the body shifts, the small inner sprite gently moves within the hollow beetle form, creating a soft, bell-like sound. This subtle motion transforms the piece from a static object into a responsive presence. The interaction is intuitive and continuous, allowing the wearer to experience the jewelry not only visually, but through sound and movement.
