morphologica — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 15:48:05 GMT

Stunning laser cut earrings formed from elegant intertwined DNA-like strands. Beautiful and unusual. A truly unique piece inspired by the beauty of neuroscience Laser-cut from black acrylic, crafted into beautiful drop earrings with silver hooks. Approximate earring length from top of hook is 2.6 inches (6.7cm). Created using high quality silver-plated components. Sterling silver hooks available on request (smaller hooks without ball feature) via 'message to seller' box during checkout. Earrings are created with new hooks that have not been worn. *This DNA design is also available as a necklace or as earrings in a larger size or different colour* .......................................................................................................

About the design and production process: Each piece starts its life as a sketch on paper, then is modelled digitally and cut by laser beam, before finally being assembled into a truly unique piece. During my PhD research, I have discovered that science can be surprisingly beautiful- single cells viewed under a microscope, intricate networks of cells important for learning and memory, and even the curving structure of the brain itself. I have tried to capture some of this beauty in the Morphologica pieces, focusing on the shape or morphology of a variety of subjects studied in neuroscience. Copyright Morphologica
