THREYE Jewellery Third Eylid

THREYE Jewellery Third Eylid is an innovative eye jewelry collection that draws inspiration from the nictitating membrane patterns found in frogs, birds, and lizards, representing a unique intersection of biological mimicry and contemporary jewelry design. This sophisticated piece, which earned the Silver A' Design Award in the Jewelry Design category, exemplifies the harmonious fusion of ergonomic design principles and artistic expression. The jewelry is distinguished by its lightweight construction and remarkable ability to maintain its position on the face without additional fixing mechanisms, achieved through precise replication of facial contours in the nose area using advanced 3D scanning and modeling technologies. Crafted from polished silver, blackened silver, or gold-plated silver, each piece weighs approximately 6 grams and measures 80x10x20 millimeters, featuring unique patterns that encourage focused contemplation. The design process involves sophisticated technological applications, beginning with 3D face scanning for personalized fitting, followed by SLA technology for wax printing, and culminating in traditional casting methods with meticulous hand finishing. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this jewelry piece serves a philosophical purpose by addressing contemporary social concerns regarding digital device dependency, aiming to redirect attention from virtual distractions to present-moment awareness. The design's conceptual foundation draws parallel between the protective function of the third eyelid in nature and its metaphorical role in shielding humans from information overload, representing a thoughtful commentary on modern social behavior through the medium of wearable art.
