Dewy: A Unique Brooch Pin by Maria Anwar

Inspired by Nature and Crafted with Precision

Design Name: Dewy

Maria Anwar, a talented designer, has created a stunning brooch pin that captures the essence of nature. Named "Dewy," this exquisite piece is inspired by the beauty of dew drops on a leaf. With its intricate design and unique features, Dewy is a true testament to Maria Anwar's creativity and craftsmanship.

The design of Dewy revolves around the concept of dew drops, which symbolize truth, sincerity, peace, and innocence. The brooch features cabochon emeralds set in yellow gold, reflecting the vibrant colors of a leaf in sunlight. The most remarkable aspect of the design is the leaf emerging from a circle, representing the encircling of a leaf around a stem. Every detail has been meticulously crafted to stay true to nature.

What sets Dewy apart from other brooch pins is its versatility. It can also be worn as a hair clip, adding a touch of elegance to any hairstyle. This dual functionality makes Dewy a truly unique and practical accessory.

The realization of Dewy was made possible through advanced 3D design visualization. Using Matrix 7.5, Maria Anwar brought her vision to life, ensuring every curve and detail was perfectly captured. The brooch is crafted from platinum and yellow gold, with emeralds and diamonds adding a touch of luxury and sophistication.

Technical specifications of Dewy include a width of 33.5 mm, a depth of 5 mm, and a height of 31 mm. The design is divided into two parts: a leaf shape in platinum and a half circle in yellow gold. These elements come together harmoniously to create a visually stunning piece.

Dewy was initially designed in December 2012 as part of Maria Anwar's portfolio. The 3D design project started in December 2014 and was completed within a week. It was a class project during Maria's CAD/CAM class at GIA New York. The exceptional design of Dewy earned it the prestigious "Students Choice Award" at the campus in December 2014.

Creating Dewy came with its fair share of challenges. The most significant hurdle was designing the leaf emerging from the smooth surface of the circle on a 3D software. However, through perseverance and experimentation with different commands, Maria Anwar successfully overcame this obstacle, resulting in a flawless design.

Dewy is not just a piece of jewelry; it is a work of art that embodies the beauty and purity of nature. With its unique design, dual functionality, and exceptional craftsmanship, Dewy is a testament to Maria Anwar's talent and creativity.
