CHLOROPHYLL
The colours Play Act in nature
Color is a microconsciousness. Like our senses of taste and smell, color helps us to understand the world around us. It helps us survive as a species, and appreciate works of art. For my design collection I took the natural colourant that is chlorophyll as my inspiration. The design depicts the play of chlorophyll and cartenoid in the chloroplast of a leaf. As the chlorophyll in leaves decays in the autumn, the green colour fades and is replaced by the oranges and reds of carotenoids.
The jewellery has a graphical appeal as it is designed for men. The range include a handcuff, a tiepin, cufflinks and a keychain.
