Treasures From The Dephts

Every time I descend beneath the sea’s surface, I encounter the underwater kingdom. Each of the colorful creatures that I observe among the reefs contains a world in itself. They provide a glimpse into a magical universe, where everything fits together in the perfect harmony of nature. The series of jewelry I created invites the viewer to experience the sense of wonder and enchantment of observing the small details of the underwater world. Coral reefs, oysters and pearls, gain new life as jewelry. Each piece is worn as if growing from within the body. The process of creating the collection begins with diving and photographing the reefs. I then design the jewelry drawings and model them in 3D. They are printed in wax and cast in 925 silver, then inlaid them with sparkling diamonds and gemstones. Finally, I painted the metal with enamel and sprinkled with diamond powder that simulates the foam of the waves. Materials: 925 silver, hot enamel, diamonds, gems; Sapphire, Tourmaline, Emerald, Aquamarine, Pearls, UV colors and Diamond Powder. Working Techniques: 3D modeling, wax printing, casting, stone setting, hot enamel, diamond powder.
