Research

Pendants are often designed in a fixed form in the jewelry industry. The Tangram series are inspired by tangram, a Asian educational toy. Designer has designed seven individual units to be structured in different number and manners into different pendants. The wearer can wear only one pendant as needed, or structure two or three units into the one they like. The process is interactive and playful. In brief, the series provides an interesting interaction between the wearers and the jewelry.

Inspiration

The inspiration comes from Tangram. Tangram is a traditional intelligence toy of ancient China, helping, with seven pieces of puzzles, to make various shapes, including figures, animals, alphabets and other elements, which are constantly changing and vivid, where this collection of Tangram jewelry is originated under such creative inspiration.
