Om Her Decree Ring
Her Decree er en ring, der også kan bruges som pen. Designet er inspireret af fjerpennen, et historisk symbol på viden og autoritet, nyfortolket som et moderne udtryk for magt. Spidsen er udstyret med en blækfri penspids i legering, hvilket gør ringen til et diskret og præcist signeringsinstrument. Fjerformen er udformet gennem præcis 3D-modellering og fremstillet ved detaljerig cire perdue-støbning, hvilket giver strukturen både skulpturel flydende form og styrke. Ringen repræsenterer en kvindes magt til at skrive sin egen skæbne.

- Produktionsteknologi
- The ring is developed through precision 3D modeling and produced using high-detail lost-wax casting. The feather structure is digitally engineered to maintain both sculptural fluidity and structural strength.
- Designudfordring
- The primary challenge of this project was translating the symbolic meaning of the quill pen into a contemporary ring form without reducing it to literal decoration. The design required balancing sculptural elegance with structural durability. Integrating an inkless writing mechanism within a fine jewelry scale presented technical constraints related to precision, material strength, and wearability. Additional challenges included maintaining aesthetic refinement while ensuring functional reliability. These obstacles were addressed through iterative digital modeling, structural reinforcement strategies, and material testing to achieve both conceptual integrity and practical feasibility.
- Forskning
- This project investigates the historical symbolism of the quill pen as an instrument of knowledge and authority from the sixth to seventh century onward. Research focused on the relationship between writing, power structures, and gender identity in European history. Methods included historical literature review, visual analysis of royal documentation artifacts, and material experimentation through digital modeling and prototyping. The design integrates symbolic abstraction with functional innovation by incorporating an inkless writing mechanism within a wearable object. The result is a ring that reinterprets authorship as a contemporary expression of female agency and personal sovereignty.
- Inspiration
- This ring is inspired by the quill pen, widely used across Europe from the sixth to seventh century onward. In that era, knowledge was inseparable from divine authority and writing symbolized power and order. Reimagined as a ring, the flowing feather express grace and softness while the pen represents intellect and discernment. It embodies a balance of elegance and wisdom and symbolizes a woman writing her own power.
