I collaborated with a local jewelry shop to design pieces they could manufacture into finished items. I created detailed 3D models and technical drawings that matched their fabrication processes and material constraints. Working closely with the craftsmen, I adjusted designs for practicality—simplifying delicate elements, reinforcing thin sections, and specifying tolerances—so the pieces would be durable and producible.

The process included:

• Initial sketches and concept variations to explore styles and proportions.

• 3D models showing exact dimensions, wall thicknesses, and connection points.

• Technical drawings and notes for casting, soldering, and finishing steps.

• Iterative reviews with the shop to address tooling limits and material choices.

• Prototyping and small adjustments after seeing test pieces.

The result was a range of wearable, well-crafted jewelry that preserved the original design intent while meeting real-world manufacturing requirements.
