About Blue Daisy Orecchini Multifunzionali
I Daisy sono fiori compositi con due fiori combinati in uno, una sezione interna e una sezione esterna a petalo. Simboleggia l'intreccio di due che rappresentano il vero amore o il legame finale. Il design si fonde con l'unicità del fiore margherita permettendo a chi lo indossa di indossare la margherita in molteplici modi. La scelta degli zaffiri blu per i petali sottolineano l'ispirazione per la speranza, il desiderio e l'amore. Gli zaffiri gialli scelti per il petalo del fiore centrale avvolgono chi lo indossa per provare un senso di gioia e orgoglio dando a chi lo indossa completa serenità e fiducia nel mostrare la sua eleganza.

- Production Technology
- Number of sketches were made for design elements such as size, shape, arrangement and practicality. I also used clay and paper cut to assist me better. Discussions between manufacturer, checking result or progress at every stage was utmost important for accuracy, good workmanship and common understanding.
- Design Challenge
- The most challenging was the technical part of the connector and hook whereby it must be practical, and yet unnoticeable. And consider the weight and the dangle effect on ears. Traditional butterflies stud didn’t apply, instead round stud with add on circle was created to avoid droopy earrings. Couple of trial and errors made and communication to manufacturer also has taken up some time.
- Research
- Firstly, to check the characteristic of the flower such as the petals, colors and composites. Actual flowers and pictures were gathered. Then, ratio and size of the flower was taken. Multiple sketches were made in order to translate it into jewelry. Other than basic tools, clay was used for initial concept and changes. It then translated into wax carving as a model before fabricated it to the shapes and form. Technical part such as size, weight, hook, tail and flexibility were also tested to ensure meeting the versatility yet modelling blue daisy without compromising the practicality.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration was from blue daisy flower which the color is rare, unique and mystic in compare to pink or peach daisies. Imagined the daisy is dangling. Flower on ear lope can be seen as old-fashioned but not it can be trendy too. First, just only wear the earrings stud for casual and simplicity. Second, hook on the daisies to each side of the earrings stud. Lastly, hook on both daisies to one side of the earrings stud only. The earrings was created for flexibility and different outcomes.
- Project Duration
- This piece started in June 2018 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and ended August 2018.
- Operation Flow
- Blue Daisy is meant for multifunctional or interchangeable. From casual to more luxury feel at different occasions. It is very simple to operate. Just hook onto one another from a tiny tail hidden behind. No pressure is needed. It is safe to wear as the tail was designed with the flow of the outer shape with certain length requirement. To remove simply follow the flow to unhook.
