Alter Self Wearable Jewellery by Elina Gleizer

Posted: 23 Oct 2013 08:11 AM PDT



Up and coming Israeli Jewelry Designer, Elina Gleizer has created an impressive range of fashion jewelry and accessories named Alter Self for her graduation project.

Alter Self is inspired by ergonomics, human curves, anatomy and guide lines. Each item is designed for specific body part and expressing it with slight exaggeration. All made from carved Walnut, traditional silversmithing, combining semi- precious stones, silver, and gold plated brass.

The project was started with a face object, inspired by the eyebrow line and the eye sockets- sunglasses with wooden geometric visor, and two round lenses. Wooden brooch inspired by the heart, dynamic brooch inspired by the rib junction, silver necklace with wooden pendant inspired by the stomach, large linen bag inspired by the hips, and bracelet and knuckle rings inspired by knuckles and joints. Each wearable was made of walnut wood which was refined further by adding metal and semi precious stones.
