The heart is such a complicated thing, both physically as it beats to keep us alive, and emotionally in matters of love. These beautiful and complex pieces which are symbolic of the intricate structure and layers of delicate balance associated with a heart are part of a jewellery series by Tjep called ‘Clockwork Love‘(Clockwork love paper & Clockwork love gold). Developed by Tjep, these Clockwork Love series are described as “A jewelry collection evenly and consistently combining a great multitude of graphic elements in a multitude of layers.” The pieces are intended to represent various moods of the heart and link to themes such as “fragility, passion, uncertainty, and desire.” Such stunning and painstaking hand-made work! Love the paper sculptures and eager to see the real product. [source]
