INWATER Collection
INWATER|Glass jewelry like being underwater, where clarity and murkiness overlap
Clarity and opacity paint memories of water
As if you were in soft water. Rather than wearing jewelry from the outside, glass containing light quietly blends with the skin, enhancing the contours of the person themselves—INWATER is such a collection.
Pale blue gradient glass motifs. Clear layers and layers containing opacity overlap to create Gleichenia's unique texture that holds a bubble-skin-like expression.
The phenomenon of devitrification Devitrification
It began with a phenomenon we encountered unexpectedly during the creative process. An unforeseen change that occurred during production—an event that could be called a "failure" was the catalyst. The overlapping of marble-like layers and transparent glass that we had never seen before. This accidental expression was a discovery filled with joy for us.
Usually, losing transparency (devitrification) in glass making is considered a change that should be avoided. INWATER deliberately incorporates this into the core of its design. We introduce devitrification in detail in this article.
Texture like being in water
Clear layers and layers containing opacity overlap to create a bubble-skin-like expression. The fluctuations created by heat and time differ for each piece, and no two are alike. By allowing the skin to show through slightly, it quietly blends with the body and gently enhances the contours of that person's individuality.
Just as water exists without form, changing its appearance. The INWATER collection envisions jewelry becoming part of the wearer's body through the skin showing faintly through, becoming a soft presence as if in water.
