Nautilus Earrings

DSCulp — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 02:13:27 GMT

The nautilus has survived relatively unchanged for the last 500 million years and is known for its unique and beautiful shell. This shell presents one of the finest natural examples of a logarithmic spiral. This same spiral shows itself in the construction of storms, the arms of galaxies, the behaviour of insects and birds, the blooming of a flower and even the nerves of the human cornea. It is for this reason that it is sometimes referred to as “God’s Fingerprint” and perhaps why it resonates so strongly as a symbol of beauty. I chose the nautilus as my inspiration for these unique earrings and realized them in three very distinct variations. The first highlights the beauty of the geometry itself by laser cutting the progressively smaller and smaller patterns of each ring. The second relies on laser etching to convey the beauty of this sacred pattern. The third combines my love of copper and sandwiches it between two layers of 3mm black acrylic to create a striking contrast. Each is approx 48mm x 33mm and is made from 3mm black acrylic.

Swallowtail Butterfly Brooch

DSCulp — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 19:20:27 GMT

This is another of the butterflies of my youth but this is the one that got away. With a wingspan of up to 12cm the Tiger Swallowtail is one of the largest butterflies in North America. They often rest in the sun with their wings fully spread and their vivid yellow colouring makes a lasting impression. They weren’t very common where I lived and when I did see one it was a special occasion that would send me running for the net with excitement. Things were different then, and it seemed perfectly normal to have a display box of these delicate creatures. I never did catch a Tiger Swallowtail and as an adult, looking back, I’m glad I didn’t. I have no idea what happened to my childhood collection, but the excitement that I feel whenever I see one of these magnificent creatures always takes me back to those simpler times. The delicate patterns of the wings are cut from 3mm black acrylic, and the brilliant yellow is recreated with brass foil. Brooch is 78mm x 40mm (approx 3” x 1.6”) and each is signed and numbered. Limited edition of 100.

Summer Haiku

Iheartdesignandstuff — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 03:17:37 GMT

This jewelry literally makes an impression! inspired by summer tan-lines, summer haiku is a wearable stencil. Just position the stencil words on your skin, spray sunblock on top - and get out on the beach! You'll have a poetic tan in no time at all. The haiku is a japanese poem on summer by "Issa" (1762-1826), written in Helvetica. An attractive necklace that looks great in, or out of the sun.

Summer locket necklace

Iheartdesignandstuff — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 23:27:07 GMT

We all have special memories of summer. Wouldn't it be great if you could capture that little something? - a reminder of summer fun: maybe a leaf, a flower, or a picture. this is a locket that you can clip that special little reminder in. slip it into the wood backing then cover with the clear plastic and screw tight. The two locket shapes provided are 2 New Zealand summer icons: the Pohutakawa flower (or New Zealand Christmas tree), and a tomato sauce bottle (common to the great kiwi bbq). - they look great even without anything inside. comes fully assembled with screw and chain.

Life's Mantra (3mm - 4mm)

WoodMarvels — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 05:04:24 GMT

The image is on a P1 board and include everything seen, so you get six pieces for the price of one! There are some of the slogans that help define my life and I wished others did as well. There are three key chains (7cm x 1.2cm) and three medallions (3.6cm round). Would be cut on 3 or 4mm of various materials.

Daisy chain

Hammer — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 06:08:00 GMT

What describes summer more than making daisy chains in the sun? And just like a real daisy chain this is jewelery for a day. Cut from paper or tyvek this design is just for that one special occasion. Let the paper overlap so each flower is made of three layers, held together by pulling the 'heart' through the other two layers. You decide how long you want your chain...
