New Range of earrings

I've been sitting on this idea for a while, quite simple really. For it was a chance to produce quick, colourful and affordable pieces. When I started making jewellery (age 15) I made simple beaded earrings that sold out at craft fairs. I wanted to develop these earrings into more sophisticated and decorative pieces of jewellery. I wanted to design pieces using the idea of positive and negative space with the incorporation of colour. They have been designed on Rhino (a 3d modeling programme) and printed using a rapid prototyper.


 


This pair consists of two layers, white and indigo, that were printed separately 
and then riveted together. The earring hooks are sterling silver.


 


    This pair of earrings again has two different printed layers that are attached
              by the sterling silver hooks. The white layer is semi-translucent and shows 
off the black silhouette.
