Bijou
Bijou is a sustainable jewelry set created from ocean plastic. The Turquoise & Emerald color scheme imitates the pattern of ocean tide while generating gemstone texture.
Project time: Spring 2022
Category: Sustainable Jewelry
Materials
Plastic bottles: ARROWHEAD (white transparent),
SAN PELLEGRINO (green transparent)
For this project, I repurposed two different plastic bottles from ARROWHEAD and SAN PELLEGRINO, collected from my home.
What if I can give them a second life value?
Concept - Turquoise
The inspiration comes from the tide. I experimented with color and property change, melting and mixing the two kinds of plastic. When two layers overlap each other, it will create an effect of waving and flowing.
Concept - Emerald
The inspiration for Emerald comes from the wave of the ocean. When two layers overlay each other, it will create an effect of waving and flowing.
