3 beautiful engraved earrings
"Openwork" is one of the techniques of metal engraving.
This technique is used not only in metalworking but also in woodworking.
Any pattern can be created by cutting precious metals such as silver according to the design.
This time we will introduce the openwork earrings produced by IMULTA.
Florentine
Florentine Earrings
These silver earrings are carved with a variety of designs that resemble Zentangle.
The name Florentine comes from the way the nuts in the Florentine pastry look close together.
The gently uneven surface gives the piece a glossy, mirror-like shine, and the structure, which resembles delicate silver wire joined together, creates a very light wearing feel.
Openwork carving itself, if not limited to metal engraving techniques, is said to have existed since the Jomon period.
The lightness that makes it appear as if it is floating in space is created by the varying strengths of the openwork lines, and gives a sense of solid craftsmanship.
Triangle Florentine
Silver earrings with openwork detailing in an acute triangle shape
A design that cuts out traditional arabesque patterns.
The openwork pattern is beautifully cut out and the parts that connect to the triangular outer frame are minimised to make the piece even lighter.
Rose
The openwork design expresses the shadows of rose petals.
These silver earrings feature a design that expresses the shadows of the petals by varying the thickness of the silver lines in an openwork pattern, creating a change in the light as if the light were wet with dew.
