Description
This bracelet was a gift for my wife for our 5th anniversary. I wanted a design, which counts the years from 0 to infinity. So I created a "pattern of all polygons", starting with little dots, which turn to lines and triangles, then quads, pentagons, hexagons and further, until they become circles ( the polygon with infinite corners).
The design development was quit a journey for me, as I learned allot about international tiling, like the "Cairo pentagon" or the "Rhombille".
The bracelet has a comfortable feel. It’s delicate, but robust. The diameters of the inner ellipse are 58 mm x 68 mm, which seems to be quite a good fit for most ladies.
The bracelet is 40 mm wide and up to 5 mm thick.
