The designer was fascinated by the geometrical form of a seed given to him by his daughter and he started the design. In nature, nothing is complete and everything is complete is the first thought one can think when one sees this pair of earrings. The ring has a smooth and beautiful shape, and the precious stones are like the seed coming out from the ground, waving for your attention. It's very unique, the nature, and of course the jewelry.

The ring is set entirely in 18k yellow gold with a constellation of more than 20 carats of over 900 Colour Sapphires in 100 different shades. It is also adorned with Alexandrite, Tanzanite, Tsavorite, and White and Champagne Diamonds. As a result of more than 500 hours of engineering and craft, the ring is finished with set stones in all dimensions with 4 different types of settings.

The gold is carved and wrapped around the shell in a design reminiscent of a broken fishing net, in which the shell can be seen to break through the molten gold netting, breaking boundaries between man and nature. The structure of the earrings is formed from shapes of different deep-sea creatures, reflecting the relationship between humans and sea life. Each piece is embellished with ocean-evoking aquamarines and natural diamonds.

If it wasn't a watch that naturally moves sunwise, it wouldn't be possible to read it. The edges of two semi-circles moving in clockwise direction show hours and minutes, they are both leveled at the same height which creates a flat surface. By the interlocking shapes, hands and watch face become one to create a constantly changing graphic.
Continue readingInside the Jupiter watch, steel spheres are rolling in hydraulically pressed channels, held in place by magnetic force. The wavelike dial is inset into the convex shaped crystal glass, which prevents the spheres from leaving their paths. A glass dome covering the top watch area transitions into the stainless steel casing seamlessly. With omission of a visible stem, watch hands or markings, there are no elements to distract from the time-telling spheres. Despite the absence of visible watch hands, a conventional quartz movement is being used to drive the planetary time indicator.

One earring is depicted in white gold as Fairy of the Day, with diamond flowers and an emerald heart. The other earring, Fairy of the Night, is depicted in black gold, with a ruby heart and diamond stars. The design of the piece was combined with its technical side while maintaining it lightweight. First, a 3D model was created and grown by prototyping on a 3D printer. The cast was made in gold and polished. Then, 403 precious stones were fixed into the base product and the parts were connected.
