Movement & Flow
We were on holidays, staying in the North of Finland during summer solstice – watching a sun that refused to set. The Oulu started as a watercolor painting of the sunset through the trees, then inspiring a sketch using Caran d’Ache 001, 009, 021 and 240. The 3D CAD was then designed using 8 layers in Rhino Gold and additional final texture layers.
After imposing the physical 3D negatives in silicon and wax, a single gypsum mold was cast and then kiln-fired to house the molten metal. Including several rounds of design edits and final production ready controls, the Oulu process consumed roughly 4-months.
Afew Jewels are all designed, fabricated, and finished using our in-house methods in Europe.
