Solasta – Future Origin – JD Annual Design Awards 2017

Collection Name: Solasta
Students Names: Atufa Ambareen

Solasta is a futuristic jewellery piece crafted with perfection and has the power to make the owner feel unprecedented. With a desire to act upon social and environmental issues, the designer was determined to create a sustainable piece. Copper, being 100% recyclable is the perfect ingredient for viable and sustainable jewellery. Characteristics such as high malleability, makes it convenient to change its form for making bracelets, bangles, earrings, necklaces and broaches. Copper is often referred to as a man’s eternal metal as it’s highly durable, long lasting and can be used in all applications of life. Inspired from the superfluous drape of Greek clothing, this alluring piece of creation is a fashionable body gear and is adorned with many textures and tones. The body gear starts with a choker made of exquisite reddish brown copper metal and shimmery broken waste mirrors, to add an edge. As a way to express oneself, this divine jewellery looks like the wing of a bird covering the neck and the shoulder, and the back looks like the waves gushing from a different direction to meet at a junction. Today’s jewellery is about the uniqueness of the design, value and personalization and should be something that leaves a little sparkle wherever you go.
