Bauhaus Wrist Watch

Bauhaus

Bauhaus is a wristwatch designed with a minimal and bold appearance. The 41 millimeter case is made of surgical grade 316L stainless steel with a physical vapor deposition coating, which resists corrosion and scratches. A Seiko VD72 quartz movement with a date function is used, and the crown sets the date, the hours and the minutes. The water resistance rate is 5ATM, or 50 meters. The 20 millimeter strap has a quick release system for a fast change of style. Clean lines and a simple framework guide the whole design.

Fusion Jewelry Collection

Fusion

Fusion is a jewelry collection made of silver, formed by a ring and a necklace. An algorithm generates a Voronoi skeleton, used as a metaphor for the organic connection of forms. The shapes blend features such as the spreading wings of butterflies and the opening of buds. Different viewing angles reveal different biomorphic features. Both pieces are modular, so they can be combined with other accessories and worn in several ways. The collection is 3D modelled, 3D printed and cast in silver with the lost wax method.

Butterfly Brooch

Butterfly

This hand-crafted wearable art piece can be worn as an accessory or even displayed at home. Using a novel double-sided 3D embroidery technique, the same pattern was simultaneously stitched on both sides of the piece. Its thin, powdery, and shiny wings could be reproduced with single strands and wires, resulting in a lifelike 3D butterfly with form-changeable wings. The wings were attached firmly to pedestals so they will not easily come off. The genuine gold and platinum threads used are so hard that until now, they have never been used in Japan’s embroidery industry.

Geometry of Fiction Jewelry Collection

Geometry of Fiction

Geometry of Fiction is a silver jewelry collection of three rings. The forms were inspired by the architecture of the historic Golshan Bathhouse in Yazd, Iran. An experimental method was used: primary shapes such as cubes and cylinders were combined in three-dimensional software with the reversed geometry of the bathhouse, producing more than 250 new forms. A few forms were then selected for the rings. The pieces were modeled digitally, printed in resin and cast in silver. The three rings can be worn as a set, in pairs or alone.

Eves Weapon Collier

Eves Weapon

Eve's weapon is made of 750 carat rose and white gold. It contains 110 diamonds (20.2ct) and consists of 62 segments. All of them have two completely different appearances: In side view the segments are apple shaped, in top view V-shaped lines can be seen. Each segment is split sideways to create the spring loading effect holding the diamonds – the diamonds are held by tension only. This advantageously emphasizes the luminosity, brilliance and maximizes the visible radiance of the diamond. It allows for a extremely light and clear design, despite the size of the necklace.

Orosi Jewelry

Orosi

Orosi is a ring inspired by the Orosi windows of traditional Iranian architecture. Orosi windows are tall casements that reach from the ceiling to the floor and hold tinted glass in geometric patterns. The ring recalls the windows of Golestan Palace in a small form worn on the hand. The ring is made of pure silver and is shaped by hand with traditional Iranian methods, including cutting, shaping and silver fusing. A simple visual form was chosen for ease of use. The intent is to present the culture and the art of Iran.

Gloria Jewelry

Gloria

Gloria is a jewelry collection that includes a ring and a bracelet. The design is inspired by the halo, a luminous ring that artists paint around the heads of saints as a sign of virtue. The main shanks of the ring and the body of the bracelet are shaped by hand from wire. The stones are also made by hand from natural materials, without chemical colors or added substances, so the stones can return to nature. The pieces can be worn separately or combined, so the form and the function can be changed. The intent is to express the elevation of the human spirit in a wearable object.

The Venus Collection extends the idea, using natural yellow diamonds encircled by white diamonds.

Ring sizes and stone sizes are adjusted to each customer.
