PAPER fringe

This season I have been inspired by the fringe and the way it falls lightly.

I couldn't resist on working on 2 versions.

With the short version I play with 2 colors : while this model settles on the bust, the longer model moves and catches light.

I am using wrapping paper  with a glossy finish for the beads, thin enough to roll it into narrow sticks and mounted on an antique brass chain. Finally, 3 small metallic pearls ( gold finish) bring weight and contrast with the texture of the paper.

LIN

I am evolving with corrugated paper. 

I have worked with this thinner corrugated paper that allows more subtle waves, 

a more complex final shape.

Painted and varnished in black on this picture, it is mounted on a very thin metallic chain 

(gunmetal finish), doubled for a softer transition with the neck.

This model is for the bust.

LAVA

With a stronger kind of corrugated paper also painted and varnished, 

this model is about elementary shapes. tensed, closed, empty and always in movement.

It is a double necklace, sautoir style ( long). The kind you just throw on you as you would throw a scarf 

to animate your outfit.

I love those big round beads so I found another way to wear them. 

How interesting is this line of 3 beads gives weight to the paper. For the winter, on top of your sweater, even with a scarf, the sautoir style which is a long necklace always shows  and with its rigorous lines settle your silhouette.
