Jewelry Inspiration: Three-Dimensional Circles

Klimt02 is a website that provides an international forum for contemporary jewelry in a creative space that offers knowledge, information, debates, and exchanges - all within the artistic realm of jewelry. Based in Barcelona, Spain, Kilmt02 inspires everyone interested in the selection, quality, art, technology, and creation of art jewelry. Sheffield School has kindly been given permission to share the work of an Austrian designer who is "running rings" around the competition - and his beautiful circular geometry brings to mind the intertwined Olympic Rings.

Presentation

This newest body of work consists of brooches, pendants, rings and earrings. I use the circle as a basic component and put together three-dimensional forms with six different circle sizes. These forms are built symmetrically, starting from a center and adding and arranging the components in different angles to form clusters and layers. The resulting shape is a rigid meshwork, where the cube can be recognized as the main organizing form. 

Building the forms was like a game for exploring variations. I used the same number of components to put together forms with different characteristics: pattern, density and size. The pieces are first built up in wax and then cast in one piece in silver or gold.

    Circles are always being linked with most auspicious moments of life. Loved this concept of 3D jewellery...

    I would love to agree that circle shape is infinity. It has beginning but it has no end. Jewelry symbolizes glamour and love.
    Infinite inspiration required...love the blog, attracting like minded peeps x
