Snowflake necklace

Autor: Piotr Zieliński

Fractals is a mathematical term for forms where each part has the same statistical character as the whole.

Fractals are clearly visible in snowflakes. No two are alike, yet each is a fractal. Individual arms branch off, becomimg smaller and smaller branches. For me, self-similarity in nature has always been a sign of a conscious, higher design. In response to this phenomenon, a snowflake necklace was born.

It would seem that the obvious colour for the snowflake would be white. However, I watched a video showing ice crushing, and noticed that the ancient permafrost in the fractal is blue! Fascinated by this, I opted for blue topaz. The stones were cut to order, specially for this project.

When designing this piece, I made sure that the necklace had a captivating appearance, studded with stones, and had an intricate fractal composition. The whole necklace was handcrafted in white gold 750.

The reverse of the necklace shows its beauty and careful craftsmanship.
