| DESIGN NAME: Lilies of Wavre PRIMARY FUNCTION: Jewelry Set INSPIRATION: Lilies of Wavre were inspired by the historical coat of arms of Wavre, Belgium - three elements resembling either waterlilies or hearts. Representing the marshy surroundings and the warmth and friendliness of its inhabitants, the idea came to create a three-dimensional jewelry resembling the original coat of arms. With a few design elements added for technical feasibility, the finished piece embodies the spirit of the place. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Lilies of Wavre collection delicately combines elegance and sophistication. Its main element is formed by three waterlilies connected with thin, curved lines reminiscent of water herbs. The top of the piece resembles a crown. This jewelry set includes a necklace, earrings and bracelets, available in different sizes, so that one can wear a more discreet version for everyday or a more glamorous one for special events. The collection is available in yellow and white gold, as well as silver. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: All necklaces, bracelets and earrings are flexible and have convenient locks, making them comfortable to take on/off and wear. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Lilies of Wavre were created in 2019. The project took around 2 months. It was first presented to public at an art exhibition in Belgium. |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The production involves manual design, 3D design and prototyping, high precision casting, laser and manual welding, as well as manual finishing. For finishing of rhodium-plated white gold and silver versions, it also involves electroplating. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: The elements are 1,5x1cm, 2x1,5cm and 3x2,5cm in size. They are used in various combinations to form single-element and multi-element necklaces and bracelets and earrings. The pieces are available in 18k and 14k white gold with palladium as well as rhodium-plated sterling silver. TAGS: Queensberg, Wavre, necklace, bracelet, earrings, Yatskaer RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The research was to explore the possibility of conveying the coat of arms in a way that would make it the prototype of an elegant jewelry that could be worn to events and on a daily basis. Rather than simply hanging the coat of arms around one's neck, the idea was to use its shape and elements, so that even those who know nothing of this particular town would find it attractive. In other words, the goal was to create jewelry that was spectacular, stylish, and at the same time unmistakably Made in Wavre. CHALLENGE: When creating a three-dimensional design based on a flat coat of arms, one encounters a few challenges. In the original coat of arms, the waterlilies are placed on a white or transparent background. The solution was to create curved lines reminiscent of aquatic vegetation and conforming to the overall style. Other challenges were more technical, particularly ensuring that the crown elements would be sufficiently stable during printing and casting, especially for the smallest-sized elements.

NAME: Queensberg PROFILE: From the background, Olga is a professional historian and a psychologist. But since she was a little girl, she has always had passion for jewellery. She created her very first jewellery designs while still at high school during the breaks. Around 2003, Olga started with fantasy jewellery as a hobby but soon realised that she wants to take it to the next level. In 2011-2013, Olga studied jewellery making, enameling, modeling and design at the Arts et Metiers school in Brussels, from which she has got a diploma with the greater distinction. And to further excel in the mastership, she took private lessons from Eduard K., the mysterious jewellery virtuoso known by very few as the true author of exquisite masterpieces made for major jewellery houses in Belgium as well as Philippe Bouchez, one of the pioneers of new-age stonesetting in Europe. "The jewelry pieces created by Olga are unique objects of art, born through creative inspirations just like paintings or sculptures. These creations reveal powerful emotions while being full of poetry. Whether it's about the fantasy or luxury jewelry, she creates all pieces by her magic fingers using various materials, shapes and colours. In her new luxury gold and silver jewelry collection, we can discover this subtle touch of her soul, which is what marks the real uniqueness of jewelry creations by Olga." (Patricia Timmermans) We are glad to share with you the passion and inspiration of Olga, and hope you will really enjoy it. |
