From the workshop
From reference geometry to a finished marquise build.
A reference image was the starting point for this marquise setting. Yao worked out the design in CAD before making it in metal.
What mattered
- Use the reference to guide the custom design
- Work out the setting in 3D
- Carry the model's proportions into the metalwork
How it was made
- 01Build the CAD model
- 02Use the model to guide the metalwork
- 03Finish the marquise setting
