Ring for Mieke Govaerts

When speaking of nature as a primary source of creative inspiration, it is through understanding nature itself that people discover the technical solutions for transforming natural elements into industrial functions, all while respecting the essence of nature and making it accessible to all. The use of diverse yet carefully selected natural materials creates the concept of a circular piece of jewelry, where no single part can exist independently from the others.

Ring Gold Seashell Tourmaline Marine Gastropods Art Design Unique Piece

Production Technology

| dissected a marine gastropod to create a sculpture. After observing and scanning the unused part with a 3D scanner, I began designing the object, which is made up of six parts cast in 18k gold using the lost-wax technique. The central stone is a tourmaline, precisely cut to maximize its reflection, following a study on refraction and optical properties. After the first cleaning, the piece was assembled, set with diamonds, cleaned again, and finally rhodium-plated.

Design Challenge

Creative and naturalistic research on shells collected from the seabed and coral reefs. An analysis of the variety of shapes and colors and their transformation over time. Once, in some cultures, shells were used as currency, a practice now almost disappeared, relegated to decorative details on common objects. This work serves as a reminder of climate change, which alters colors and whitens corals and shells, erasing a part of island culture.

Project Duration

February 2023 - April 2023 in Milano

Operation Flow

This distinctive piece is noteworthy for its significant design. The ring draws inspiration from the geometry and forms found in marine nature, with a particular focus on Marine Gastropods. This creation not only possesses a profound meaning but also exhibits an extraordinary and intricate design that underscores its artistic complexity.

Research

Inspired by the intricate beauty of marine gastropods, I explored their spiral forms to create a unique piece. Using 3D scanning and the lost-wax technique, I crafted this object in 18k gold, set with diamonds and a central tourmaline, and finished with rhodium plating. It began as a concept, an emotion-driven idea that evolved through intense personal study and creative realization.

Inspiration

Inspired by the beauty and form of marine gastropods, I undertook a deep study to analyze their spiral structure. The architectural perfection I discovered was astonishing. The grace of these creatures guided my creativity, allowing me to translate their natural perfection into a unique design. This ring represents a fusion of nature and art, a tribute to the wonder of the marine world.
