Crustacean Bracelet: A Unique Design Inspired by Nature

Bringing the Exoskeletons of Crustaceans to Your Wrist

Inspired by the natural beauty of crustaceans, designer Jimin Jung has created the Crustacean Bracelet, a stunning piece of jewelry that combines art, design, and innovation.

The Crustacean Bracelet is not your ordinary piece of jewelry. It is a testament to the designer's creativity and vision, as well as their ability to incorporate natural elements into their designs. The bracelet draws inspiration from the exoskeletons of crustaceans, capturing their unique shapes and movements in a wearable piece of art.

What sets the Crustacean Bracelet apart from other designs is its original movement and clasp, which mimic the flexing of crustaceans. The designer's aim was to create a new shape for a bracelet that would evoke the image of these fascinating creatures. Through meticulous design and engineering, they were able to achieve this goal.

The Crustacean Bracelet is made using a combination of materials, including brass plated in gold, stainless steel, and steel magnet plated in gold. These materials not only give the bracelet a luxurious and elegant look but also ensure its durability and longevity.

Measuring at 28.19 x 231.36 x 17.20 mm, the Crustacean Bracelet is designed to be worn simply on either wrist with its original clasp. Its unique shape and movement make it a statement piece that is sure to turn heads and spark conversations.

Creating the Crustacean Bracelet was not without its challenges. The designer utilized 3D printing technology to bring their vision to life, but the real challenge came in designing the mechanism for the bracelet. Even the slightest error could ruin the entire piece, making precision and attention to detail crucial.

The Crustacean Bracelet was conceptualized and realized by Jimin Jung in Philadelphia in March 2014. Since its creation, it has garnered recognition and accolades, including the Bronze A' Design Award in the Jewelry, Eyewear, and Watch Design category in 2015. This prestigious award recognizes the bracelet's outstanding design and its contribution to the field of art, science, design, and technology.

With its unique design inspired by nature and its impeccable craftsmanship, the Crustacean Bracelet is a true work of art. It is a testament to the designer's ability to push boundaries and create something truly extraordinary. Whether worn as a fashion statement or admired as a piece of art, the Crustacean Bracelet is sure to captivate and inspire.
