Transience: A Symphony of White Gold and Zirconia

Mateja Krasovec Pogorelcnik's Award-Winning Jewelry Collection

Inspired by the delicate beauty of spider webs, Mateja Krasovec Pogorelcnik has created 'Transience', a stunning white gold jewelry collection. The collection, which won the Golden A' Jewelry, Eyewear and Watch Design Award in 2016, is a testament to the designer's innovative approach to jewelry design and her ability to capture the ephemeral beauty of nature in her work.

Mateja Krasovec Pogorelcnik drew inspiration from the intricate weaving of a spider web to create the 'Transience' collection. The delicate, fragile spider webs, adorned with asymmetrically inset zirconia stones, highlight the fleeting beauty of nature. The collection includes various pieces of jewelry, each designed to be worn individually or integrated into a dress.

The unique properties of the 'Transience' collection lie in its innovative design and the use of unconventional materials. The jewelry pieces, shaped like fragile spider webs, are intertwined with fabric that echoes the structure of the jewelry, creating a wavelike effect. The spatial properties of the thread used in the design allow it to enwrap and embrace the body, opening up numerous opportunities for designing unconventional jewelry.

The 'Transience' collection was realized using white gold and embedded zirconium stones. The pieces were made according to drawings by Zlatarna Celje, a world-renowned jewelry manufacturer with a long tradition of jewelry making. The design of the jewelry was adapted to the specific structure of the fabrics chosen for female evening clothing, considering transparency, optical light reflexes, and a drop of material.

The 'Transience' collection includes nine interconnected pieces of jewelry integrated into a single creation. The collection includes earrings, two rings, a bracelet, a back necklace, and two larger cobwebs with an upper arm necklace. The jewelry can be adapted to be removable or worn independently.

In conclusion, Mateja Krasovec Pogorelcnik's 'Transience' collection is a stunning example of innovative jewelry design. The collection, which captures the ephemeral beauty of spider webs in white gold and zirconia, is a testament to the designer's ability to draw inspiration from nature and translate it into wearable art. The 'Transience' collection is not just jewelry, but a celebration of the fleeting beauty of nature, captured in white gold and zirconia.
