A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE PRODUCT
Design Concept:
Inspired by rogue planets and meteorites drifting through the cosmos, this design interprets interstellar chaos and romance through the collision of diverse materials. Irregularly cut stones symbolize undefined celestial bodies, while the fusion of rhinestones, zirconia, and pearls metaphorically represents the symbiotic relationship among stardust, stars, and nebulae—embodying the philosophy of “finding unique beauty within disorder.”
Geometric Fancy-Cut Stones – Unconventional triangular, shield-shaped cuts that defy tradition
Material Fusion Philosophy
- Rhinestones (simulated gems) as fragments of stardust
- Pearls embodying lustrous micro-planets
- 24K gold-plated copper base evoking interstellar dust clouds
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Freehand Metal Forging
Hand-hammered copper blanks create irregular edges that replicate meteorite surface textures.
Innovative Stone Setting
Each fancy-cut stone features a custom-designed hybrid setting combining “half-bezel” and prong techniques for dynamic light refraction.
Distressed Gilding Technique
24K gold plating undergoes selective oxidation and abrasion to simulate interstellar travel weathering effects.
Organic Arrangement System
Rhinestones and pearls are spontaneously positioned by master artisans, guaranteeing each piece’s absolute uniqueness.

CRAFTSMANSHIP & MATERIAL NOTE
This piece is crafted using copper-gold plating with drip glaze technique. The glaze surface undergoes a natural oxidation process over time, gradually developing a vintage patina. This transformation mimics the formation of verdigris (basic copper carbonate, Cu₂(OH)₂CO₃)—a centuries-old phenomenon observed in bronze artifacts, where copper reacts with atmospheric moisture, oxygen, and carbon dioxide .
Scientific Explanation
1. Initial Protection: The gold plating acts as a barrier, slowing copper oxidation.
2. Gradual Exposure: With wear, micro-scratches expose underlying copper, initiating reactions:
• Step 1: Copper oxidizes to CuO (black copper oxide) in humid conditions.
• Step 2: CuO reacts with CO₂ and H₂O to form Cu₂(OH)₂CO₃ (green verdigris) .
3. Aesthetic Stabilization: After 3-6 months, oxidation stabilizes into a mottled antique finish, resembling heirloom silver patina.
Recommended Maintenance
1. Accelerated Aging (Optional):
• For faster patina development, lightly expose to humidity (e.g., place in a steamy bathroom for 2 hours weekly).
2. Controlled Exposure:
• Avoid excessive moisture to preserve gold plating integrity.
3. Enhanced Longevity:
• Clean with pH-neutral jewelry cleaner monthly to prevent uneven oxidation.
Why This Matters
The oxidation process is a testament to craftsmanship, creating a living artwork that evolves with its wearer—a hallmark of artisanal jewelry design.
